Java, lol

I was told by a game developer at this seminar that if I want to learn how to program games, a good way to start is with Java and making cellphone games. I plan on learning C++ before Java anyway but around how long would it take a newbie to learn Java or when would it be a good idea to learn Java if not at all?

In the case of VHDL, they just represent the configuration of various cells, but it's still functionally equivalent to the one ran on an ASIC, just an order of magnitude slower(or less).
Which is again functionally equivalent to interpreting the netlist on an CPU.
Meh, I guess what I really take issue with is the people who keep claiming that ``Verilog/VHDL is not a programming language''.
