Oracle is promoting Java on mobile platforms

Oracle has extended its environment ADF (Application Development Framework), the addition of the ability to create applications for Apple and Android. The advantage of the new ADF Mobile is that independent developers do not have to modify the code to be written once for Apple iOS device or Android.

You do not need to learn a new language or to deploy the application to a different platform. The new version of ADF is abstracted from the specific differences of devices and works with an application written entirely in its own environment.

At the same time, this expansion will probably not fit for Sunday developers hoping to make it a new version of Angry Birds. Instead, the product is aimed at helping to develop not-ADF Java applications for mobile platforms. In fact, any web application and web site, can be integrated into mobile application ADF.
