Read Java on PocketPC FAQ.
It answers many questions: available JVM's (IBM J9 (only 5$) or NISCOM Creme JVM), which user interface (AWT, Swing, SWT (see also here and here)), available databases (IBM cloudscape is free) and some books.
See also Java Support on Pocket PC (may be outdated, last update 20/6/03).
The FAQ is not actual regarding the following JVMs:
- Ewe seems still be alive. Download here. Ewe is not really a JVM. It is a Java bytecode interpreter, but only supports a small number of Java features.
Also it doesn't implement the whole library, but bring it own library (Gui, collections, zip, registry access, infra-red, desktop synchronization, database API). Still your Ewe applications will run with a standard JVM if you add the Ewe library to your classpath. See Ewe PocketPC screenshots.
- SuperWaba (Wiki) seems to be bought by a Brazilian company. Since 5.0 the license has changed: it's still open source and GPL for community edition (no charge). The professional package (with annual subscription of 495$) is under LGPL.
SuperWaba includes many additional API's such as variable screen resolution, serial/IR, Bluetooth, game API, native library. A huge range of additional controls, methods, applications, tools and development environments are available from here
As I bought a GPS PocketPC PDA few weeks ago I think I will try all of them soon and send you a feedback.
