Just an added note,

    I asked Javasoft about this a while back when I was doing some
old matel powerglove programming through the serial port, and was told
that a port comunications package was set to be a part of the far ahead 
jdk2.0 whether that is fact or not is something else.
   also check out : http://privat.swol.de/MarkusBauer/win32p.htm
it's a site with some classes for serial port communication.
