Would you be extremely surprised if Java doesn't get ported to iOS?


Not really. iOS was locked down well before Oracle had Java running on ARM, so getting java on ios wasn't a particularly reasonable goal. Getting Java on win8 arm is a reasonable goal.


What are you talking about? Java was running on OpenBSD on ARM years before the iPhone even existed. Years before Oracle even owned it.


win8 arm is already locked down. You can't have a JIT engine on it.


Will Windows RT (aka Windows [8] on ARM) not allow .NET apps to run then?


except their own.


Right, forgot about that. My bad.
