Well, as a Java dev I felt the need to interject! :-)
iPhone is still a problem, but desktop is easy - just ship with an embedded

JVM in the same way you embed webkit.
The capabilities and performance of the Java VM are still well ahead of

JavaScript, which is not the same as saying it's the way to go in this (gui

only) case!
Best wishes, Neil

how would you deploy a Java app to an iPhone? or even to my desktop?
