The reason I am bringing this up is that some of Sun's thinking leans towards
calling the Java that is in cell phones "Embedded Java" and the Java that is
used in industrial applications "Industrial Java".  See this JSR for more
details: 

http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=7

I personally hold the view of Embedded Java that Chris stated above but it
looks like we are going to have to come up with a precise definition of exactly
what Embedded Java is and what it is not because Sun does not seemed to have
defined it yet.

At JavaOne I found myself in the position of needing to explain what category
Embedlets fits into and before the Embedlets Cat is 'out of the bag' I think we
need to address this.
