 Anybody know how to do it?


I haven't used it myself but there is an embedded port of OpenJDK
that is meant to run on ARM:

I'd be interested in hearing how you progress with this, we tried
running some of our code on ARM devices a few years ago using other
implementations of Java and experienced some compatibility issues. If
OpenJDK runs ok then we might be able to dust them off and get some
use out of them.
