> They dont tend to run the jvm. That's just false. As of 2010 when I was working writing cable settop box software, cable settop boxes were legally obligated to ship with and run the JVM as part of OCAP antitrust regulation (the idea being that firmware written in Java could run on any settop box). I'm no longer in that industry, but unless something has changed in the last 5 years (which it may have) every new cable settop box shipped in the United States shipped with a JVM and booted into firmware that ran on the JVM. As of that time, all of the platforms I worked on were 32-bit. Before, I said, "I'm not sure where you're getting your information." Now I'm very sure you don't know what you're talking about.
