I think it's caused by running Java 1.7 (I can't find a link for you right now, sorry). I had the same issue and resolved it by uninstalling the 1.7 Java JDK and going back to 1.6

So ... am I reading this right?  V1.7 was released, and there's a bug which prevents even the simplest Hello World app from loading.  The solution is to revert to 1.6?  How in the world did this simple of a bug make it to production?  This has (so far) been the buggiest device I've ever worked with.  Nothing but issues.
