That is a very good question.

My assumption will be that Oracle will not make any
money from JavaFX at all.

But the calendar says 2013 now.

When SUN started the JavaFX project back in 2007 the world
was different.

Adobe and MS were quite successful with Flex and SL for RIA. And
they were actually selling development tools and server side
stuff for it.

Well - the "HTML5 wave" killed that business opportunity.

The new smart touch screen smartphones and tablets was just
around the corner and a touch screen friendly Java GUI API
could make Java the standard on those and be the foundation
for a lot of business.

Well - Google chose their own Java GUI API for Android, so
no business there either.

But I am sure that back in 2007 then JavaFX looked not only
as a technical interesting project but also as a commercial
interesting project.
