I'm supprised you had a hard time acessing the Sun site. I was able to download
Hot Java and the developers kit in about 45 minutes last Saturday morning. 
I still haven't used it though since I'm still in the middle of learning C++.I did browse
through the literature and there is a lot of bragging The little sample apps are kind 
of cute. And supprisingly the code for some of these applets seems short and simple, 
Only time and hopefully honest public opinion will tell if all the hype is warranted.
