Alex,

You might like to take a look at Patriot Scientific's SchBoom
processor. In their blurb theyclaim it to optimised for Java,
(what ever that's supposed to mean).

It is a 32 bit device with an IO processor on board, which can
be programmed to handle IO independant of the main processor.

It has a dual stack architecture and so is ideal for Forth, but
I don't think there is one available yet.

There is an evaluation kit available for $200 (IIRC) which includes
an assembler and an ANSI C Compiler.

I've played with it a bit and like it.

Their web site is at: http://www.ptsc.com
