Will Java run on a ce 1.x machine? I am looking at getting a telescope that has computer controls. They seem to have a serial interface. The software that runs many of them is java based....

I can't comment on Java running on a CE 1 machine, because I don't know. However, if you're looking to pick up a computer-controled telescope, you might want to look at TheSky Pocket Edition. However, it only runs on CE Pro or later.
