I took a quick run through the "hello world" and notepad examples on my 9.10 desktop without any hiccups. I'm not really a java developer, so I haven't pushed much past there. Everything including running the emulator worked fine though. <blockquote type="cite">On May 21, 2010 9:13 AM, "Robert P. J.
