I've seen many Applets that work very well. And I've seen a commercial Applet that runs on browser and have rich UI long time ago, at that time nobody talks about "AJAX". Applets are so powerful, they are more or less Java applications on web browser.

.The aim is binary compatibility. Each particular host operating system needs its own implementation of the JVM and runtime. These JVMs interpret the byte code semantically the same way, but the actual implementation may be different. More complicated than just the emulation of bytecode is compatible and efficient implementation of the Java core API that has to be mapped to each host operating system

Thanks for the encouragement! We'd really, really like to write an ME book! I just responded in another thread that my guess is the reason ME hasn't taken off is because the phone manufacturers can't seem to agree on any standards, so deploying an app across different phones is such a big pain!
What surprises me is that big companies don't pick a type of phone for their employees, and write apps for that specific phone?
