Java founder and Sun CEO preview new Java app store
Sun Microsystems on Tuesday demonstrated its Java Store, an outlet to distribute Java and JavaFX applications.
With the move, Sun enters the increasingly crowded app storefront market that Apple kicked off. The program is currently in beta. At JavaOne in San Francisco, Calif., Sun fellow James Gosling, and Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz demo Sun’s new online store. The new Java store will distribute and sell mobile apps based on the Java programming language.
