Try this MP3 Player <a href="http://javafx.com/samples/DraggableMP3Player/index.html">demo</a>.  If it works, then download the source code and compile parts of it until you get the sound working.

Try commenting out the 'stopTime' field in the media player

So Bob wants to write a game.  He spends the next 15,000 hours writing the story, placing the pixels, composing the music, and developing the C code.  Now Nintendo won't send him the devkit to officially publish his game to the DS.

What does Bob do?  He stages a one-hundred day webcam sit-in in which he does nothing but port his game to Android, iPhone, and OpenPandora platforms:

We are looking for strong individuals who have experience architecting and developing highly scalable servers. This person will be intimately involved in the design and development of a new MMO-style game.

Areas of responsibility will include: Loot system, Badge system, Logging system, Random map layouts, Guild system, Site integration features, Mission systems, Server monitoring, and others.

There is a "Getting Started with Blu-ray Java" page if you want to give it a try:

Hey, I spotted Ultratron on G4 during an episode of Cinematech.  It was only for a few seconds, but it was neat to see an indie java game on tv.

Phantom will make an appearance on G4 this week:

In all fairness - Chrome does contains a significant amount of java code.  The "code.pak" is actually a jar file with five megs of (uncompressed) classes consisting of world model objects, behaviors, and some low-level code.

Then this should put a smile on your face

...although it says an ATI card is required for Windows, it ran just fine on my nvidia card under XP.

There is a new java.net article on this particular subject:

"Making Fluid 3D Creatures with JOGL"

... and for the graphics people check out this "photon soup" renderer in java:

Yeah, OpenGL relies more on "rasterization" methods than on ray casting methods..

As I understand it, Microsoft is moving towards a more free form 3D-accelerated graphical interface.  I think Java clients will need to support this to some degree to remain relevant on Windows, and I think Java3D would provide a great basis.  You could have your rich animated interfaces described via XML, then generate the scene graph from this; so the learning curve wouldn't be too steep for your average Swing programmers.

These guys were the best a few years back, but their demos were written for 1.1, and barely run on todays VMs..
