I wrote some stuff in it back in October. I got tired of losing at Wordster at local bars so I wrote an application in it for my cell phone to contact my Mac at home and find all the combinations of 8,7,6,5,4, and 3 letter words from the random 8 letters Wordster gives out. It's pretty easy to write quick apps like that. I'd much rather have a phone that could talk 9p though as it stands I had to do a few tricks to make my phone think the program on my mac was an http server :-) Java's naming is very marketingriffic.
