FWIW, I am very much of the opinion that Java is going to die as a web language *really soon*. MS announced ages ago that they were dropping Java support (after their "problems" with Sun). The result of this is that Joe Bloggs Windows User will have to go out of their way to get a Java plugin for their web browser, which they just won't bother with.
that depends a lot on your view point, from a client perspective (ie web browser), they you may be right (but I wouldn't like to put money on it). But from a backend web/server point of view then there are lots of server side Java developments in larger corporations which won't disapear anytime soon.
