I've seen sun's java version of their old workshop software (SunOne or 
some such). If you've seen the same then you'll probably understand when I 
say "If sun can't get java GUI apps working, how can I expect to do so?"

I'm currently involved in a technology assessment for the future HMI 
direction of my group. So far QT is the stand-out choice.
