As you don't use java then there's no point having it so remove it. My plan is to remove anything that wastes space (untill I can afford to upgrade from a 16mb to 64mb mmc) and stops me having important stuff on there like Doom, and reference texts for uni.
As an aside what's the point in Java on the PC, after 3 years of it at uni, it still sucks harder than a Dyson vacuum cleaner. User posted image

Yes my friend you have 100% right but i think may be some prog inside of 9210 need this stuff. If not...........i throw away.
Rubbish stuff.

As far as I know none of the programs that came with the 9210 need java. However there are a couple of Java apps for the 9210 available (including a terminal app and a game - asteroids - which is PAINFULLY slow).

As for the browser question - the 9210 supports Java and NOT JAVASCRIPT! (unfortunately - it would have been better that way).
