I *strongly* recommend you get a good book on EJB (for example the Bill Burke / RMH book from O'Reilly).
The definition of "stateless" in the EJB spec is a limitation upon *you*. The container can do anything it likes! What the spec says is that *you* are not allowed to keep any state *relating to the client* in the bean.
