I believe the predecessor to Java (known as "Oak") may have been designed
for embedded systems.
But last time I looked, a Java Virtual Machine took 8 MB of memory, which
won't exactly fit into the HC11 address space :-) Really, if you want a
"real" langage for the handyboard, then use IC or something like Forth
which really _was_ designed for an embedded system.
