you're right..
but there is also the Jeode VM from insigna wich is a Sun Authorized Virtual
Machine..

Last summer, the Pocket PC gained a powerful and easy-touse language that
enabled developers take full advantage of the Windows CE operating system.
Sure to make Microsoft executives cringe, Java has finally arrived for the
iPAQ! Insignia Solutions (www.insignia.com) released its Jeode Embedded
Virtual Machine for the Intel StrongARM processor.

The Jeode EVM is a Sun Authorized Virtual Machine that is certified and
fully compliant with Sun's PersonalJava 1.2 and Embedded Java 1.0.3
specifications. It can run Java applets and applications, use a dynamic
compiler to run Java apps up to six times faster than a normal JVM
interpreter, and provide a preemptible, concurrent garbage collector for
superior memory management. Most developers don't know much about Sun's
PersonalJava and usually think about MIDP when talk of Java development for
a handheld device comes up
