there are some java apis to render chtml panels. theoretically java =
should be able to call the browser as a renderer so you could have a =
java front end portal (but instead i think for now java has a subset of =
chtml as separate classes, eg no scrolling text panels etc).
there are some cybird apps where you can try the app and then subscribe =
thru the java app itself, but i haven't seen a full java portal so far. =
interesting idea. it seems the carriers are pushing in the other =
direction, eg bandai channel is not what it used to be - docomo just =
want them to list individual apps rather than a whole portal =
destination.
there are a few apps which replace your mail interface too. and the =
calendar can be replaced by a java diary etc (especially with the new =
shamail phones I can see this as a lot of fun over the simple =
appointment stuff).
a full fledged java portal machiuke seems a very interesting idea, with =
mail etc. when the app size limit is a bit bigger on docomo it should be =
no problem.
