Jure, John, Thanks for confirming my sanity! Your experiences with the installation both tally with mine. There is definitely an issue with the install corrupting the JAR files when Java 3D has been previously executed. People installing would be well advised to reboot and uninstall previous versions of Java 3D before installing 1.2B1.
