Thanks Alex. Approach of polling the webserver cannot be applied here, because events must be processed as quick as possible.
Axis on the client's side cannot be deployed, requirements say no servlet-runners on the client-side. So ksoap or something like that can be applied here I hope. I will try to find links on ksoap to investigate it.
