Don't rule out Android development as a very marketable skill you could pick up as a Java developer.
The catch is that you will need to do your first apps on your own, just so you can get your foot in the door as a mobile app developer - but get them published on Google Play (the former Android Market), and you'll be set.
All you need to get started is Eclipse, and at least one Android device to test on. Two would be great, especially if one runs 2.3 and the other runs 4.0 or 4.1.
FWIW, if you are interested in learning Hibernate, I wrote a couple of books on Hibernate, and the publisher sent me stacks of them that clutter up my closet. Happy to send one over to you.
