Er, no.  Java in it's various forms is much more widespread.

I'm not convinced that Java is more widely spread than ECMAScript, which is currently available on almost every single web browser currently surfing the internet...


Every modern mobile phone has at least one JavaVM. SIM cards use JavaCard.  And of course most modern phones have J2ME on them as well.

There are a large number of mobile and embedded Java devices that you probably aren't aware of.  As you implied, ECMAScript is largely limited to web browsers.
