Jim, your RTOS is the program running your PC ( or anything elese) . There are a number of RTOS's the most famous is DOS- disk operating system. It is one level up from the CMOS in a PC , which is resident in the manufacture so the thing has some brains when you switch it on.
Another 'OS' would be unix. JAVA is a sotware program which runs on your windows software, which in turn runs from dos, which in turn runs from your CMOS. I think these guys are saying they have developed a version of JAVA to run at a lower level ( and hence need less memory) which makes it ideal to run on a pager, giving it graphics capability.

From their web site
"Examples of devices that will greatly benefit from monitor and control via standard Internet protocols include laser printers, network routers, factory floor machinery, security systems, even household appliances such as REFRIDGERATORS. "

Hey, Jim you will now be able to check your stocks while getting a sandwich ;-)
