Consumer JRE

Your message is awaiting moderation. Thank you for participating in the discussion.
I used to read about a feature that was supposed to come with the N/Consumer JRE that would allow a developer to create a stripped down version of the JRE that we could ship with our applications. *I'm not talking about applets*
It really sucks to have to install a 80mb JRE to run a small utility application. I don't want to see any replies to this post with people talking the about download JRE features. I'm interested in targeting environments where downloads things from the internet to servers is not allowed. The only way to know that my application is going to work when intalled is to include a JRE.

Isn't it a little ironic that to view the presentation/screencast/video about JavaFX (a flash competitor) one needs a "flash player" :) ?
