Jini myths ?!
• Jini is for hardware devices
– but at least as useful for pure software components
• Jini is an 'intelligent' network of cooperating devices
– but until now there is no definition of the common interfaces
• Jini you don't need an installation to use a device
– but there is not even a standard way to obtain user interface
• Jini can be used with any protocol between the services
– but Jini itself requires a JVM and class downloading
• Jini enables mobile computing
– but not networking
