Well, JAR files are just renamed zip files anyways. Maybe they just wanted to be annoying.

There's a small litany of reasons as to why. Most of them suck.

Given what I've been able to do with the beta sdk, I think we're finally going to see useful J2SE on OS2008. With GMail getting IMAP support, the big advantages to the J2ME client are gone. Gears is possible, too!

Java SE's always going to be more valuable on the screensize and processor we've got anyway - and now Sun are planning on phasing out Java ME anyway.

Bring on the Java SE! :-)

Java for mobiles sucks. I want a full Java SE as it is a depoloper's dream.
I love JAVA - yes, it's a little bit slow but developing application is like riding a porsche - very fast.
