For EJB work and play, there are many options now: Sun specs; BEA System' s 30-day WebLogic trials; IBM WebSphere trials; JBoss open-source EJB implementation; Orion implementation (single-developer use free, $$ for l icensed version).
So if you want to (and *can*) take the time, you can pick up the EJB stuf f. (Of course, getting a job using it without the almost requisite corporate exp erience is harder.) I find my main problem in doing so at times is simply findin g the time (or making it, different problem)...
