An important asset of this API is that its specifications are based on the Java™ programming language already familiar to the
software applications developers' community. Earlier this year, Sun Microsystems invited Canal+ Technologies to be the first
company to present several interactive television applications based on this API and the Java™ programming language during the
International CES in Las Vegas, Nev.

Recent clients for the different interactive, multimedia and Internet-related applications include ONdigital, the world's first digital terrestrial operator in the UK, and MediaOne, the leading broadband services company in the US.

The way SUN is holding in this market, I am seriously thinking of selling my Jun 55 puts and take my gains on the option position. Although I nitially bought it as a hedge, I doubt if the stock will get close to that (I did sell the 50 Jun Puts - naked to recover part of the premium for the long position).

What do you think ?
