Just have watched a video on the GDC-TV (

CELL: A New Platform for Digital Entertainment
Mark DeLoura, Dominic Mallinson
Length - 1:06:59
This presentation gives an overview of the first CELL processor, and touches on Sony Computer Entertainment's software strategy.
At 36:20 a slide contains the following:
Many more innovative programming models will be developed
* Multi-SPE pipelines
* SPE as a network available resource
* Virtual Machines on SPE (JIT Technology)
Let's hope that the last ones is tageting the PS/3 (not only other CELL archtictures) and that it'll be a JVM
