Sun’s Schwartz says Project Vector may be worlds largest app store (for Java apps)

We haven’t heard much coming out of Sun for a while since they are in negotiations with Oracle over their take over. Jonathan Schwartz recently blogged about a few interesting things though, including mention of Project Vector, which aims to be an apps store for Java apps, similar to the iPhone apps store and all the other branded stores that are popping up on every handheld platform. Sun get an immense volume of traffic coming to their sites looking for info on the Java platform, so this may be a way to stir up come cash flow from their prize jewel technology.
