Dave,

Isn't it ironic that while Java apps run across different platforms here on the Mac we have at least 3 different Java Virtual Machines (Sun, Metrowerks, Natural Inteligence) which yield different UI's from the same compiled code. One would think that both Sun and Apple would gain from one JVM/platform.

anyway...I do know of a comercial Java app. WallStreetWeb by BulletProof, Inc. (www.bulletproof.com). It's kind of cool (but I'd use a non-Mac platform to view it due to the JVM mess), but prety basic as far as apps go.
