That's true as well. Actually, I'm pretty sure that the K3 also uses Java 1.4, not Java 1.3. (I did own a K3 some time ago, and I did some experiments with it. And from what I remember, it was 1.4 as well).

EDIT: Confirmed. Kindle 3 uses Java 1.4 as well, so no need to jump through any hoops here. However, you *will* need to adapt all the Swing-specific parts, because the K3 support almost none of the Swing classes (JButton, JCheckbox, etc.)

But as said, I suggest to completely ignore the UI parts for the time being. The JBPatch core will also happily work without any UI (as it did before, actually. All of the UI stuff was only introduced with version 2, and is really only a convenience thing, because it's easier for end users). It is entirely thinkable to have a JBPatch version (and patches) which do not need any UI. That would make things a lot easier to start with, when porting it to the K3.
