As soon as Java is officially available for the palm, I'd be happy to coordinate a port. Most of the code should be usable as is. I did already install the KJava VM on my Palm III but did not yet start any porting since Sun states that many changes to the api would occur until the first official release which, I believe, is scheduled for late autumn or early winter. Until then, please have a look at http://www.ice.mpg.de/departments/ChemInf were you will find the JChemPaint project I'm referring to. Any codevelopers for porting the program to the pilot will be highly welcome.
