What happened to the “free” Jeode JVM that came with iPAQs?

Insignia ran into financial trouble and sold Jeode to a Swiss company called Esmertec. Esmertec already had an OEM-only JVM product called JBed. You can buy Esmertec Jeode for $49.99 for Dell AXIM or PocketPC 2002 devices. I have not used this product after Esmertec bought it, but be careful, the sale page seems to mention “PersonalJava” compatibility, which is the older pre-J2ME/CDC spec. It’s also much more expensive than either J9 or Creme.
