Does anybody know if JAVA supports TCP/IP Sockets over Point-to-Point
Protocol (PPP)(for serial comms) ??? If so, is there somewhere where I
can find out more? If not, do I need to write straight to the RS-232
port?

Any help/commentary would be greatly appreciated.

Hello James,

Java supports networking, using both stream and datagram, start by
looking at the java.net class (documentation for which can be
found freely at http://java.sun.com) - try

http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/api/Package-java.net.html

The level of API is high enough that it doesn't matter what the
underlaying network transport is (PPP or ethernet, etc.).

If you're interested in serial communications with Java, you
want to look at the JComm 2.0 spec, available via the free
Java Developer Connection at http://java.sun.com/ 

Let me know if this helps.
