From your future toaster to your car outside, Java software is creeping into everyday life like a unstoppable spider, invading the frig, the MP3 player, the TV, even your microwave. Java will be in everything that has an electrical "pulse". Java is in all of the fortune 500 companies. Java software has the unique capabilty to do this because of its unique birth.

It was born out of a programmers frustrations with another programming language, C++. The man was James Gosling and from his frustrations came a jewel. Java software uses a special universal way of communicating with devices and controlling them. Since this universal device, called a " java virtual machine" or JVM can be installed on so many devices that can understand logic, the future of Java software is virtually secured.

Java software is used aplenty in cell phones. ( Eight out of ten cell phones run Java. ) It can be used to make those marvellous games we love to kill time with. Most newer mobile devices are going to have that wonderful JVM pre-installed, just like your computer does. But games are not the only thing on cell phones.

Applications using Java software are also commonly used for smart cards, and since your cell phone has a lot of ability just like a smart card does, you can bet your "bottom dollar" financial transactions are going to be taking place using Java software and your cell. It is already being talked about.

Java software can deliver stock quotes to that same cell phone, or game scores, or tell you where your friends are. Java software is so closely involved with the inner workings of your cell, that it can control the workings of the phone itself.
