Actually, I subscribe to the JAWS mailing list as well, and there is a thread of
someone describing exactly this same problem that I have seen.  So, I know I am
not on crack...but it still may be an old version problem on my part.

Here is the message from the JAWS list:

Hi,

now I have tried my first time to change an EntityBean value with a set...()
Method but the value in the database was not changed. After shutting down
jBoss, the change was lost.
And why is there a commit after I have get a value ?

Here the log from jBoss:
