AFIK, that was just in an emulator.
In these phones, there just *has* to be the ability to build class
objects from bytecode; that's the basis of downloading and running
Java, after all! Why they make it completely inaccessable to the
user through any means but including the bytecode in a downloaded
jar file, I have no idea.
At any rate, you might be able to use RMI. Maybe. But I wouldn't
be surprised if even that didn't work, since again it's related to
moving class information between machines while the VM is running.
What a dumb thing to kill!
