Ed Zander, president and COO of Sun, announced during a keynote address at the JavaOne Conference that Sony Computer Entertainment, Inc. (SCEI) would integrate the Java technology platform into PlayStation 2. "This is the next step in realizing SCEI's overall strategy to lead the broadband-networked era," said Kammie Kayl.

Kayl continued, "Integrating Java technologies into the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system further extends its ability to download new applications and services dynamically from the network in a highly secure manner. PlayStation 2 owners will now be able to access millions of Java technology-based applications that currently exist on the Internet."
