Oh, from what I understand it may be NEVER that it gets a Java runtime. Many reasons but most important is the ARM licensing is a problem. I understand the hooks are in the OS but they cannot provide the runtime.
I think that you're mistaking with the Jazelle hardware acceleration. It is allowed to make Java work on maemo but the GUI part is so tedious that nobody really worked on it and/or packaged the existing work.

EDIT: Just bought those Boxware filters. Hope that will help.
