Where can I find a Java VM for Windows CE?

First off, you cannot run Java applets in Pocket Internet Explorer. Somebody maybe a company other than Microsoft will create a web browser for Windows CE that will support Java. For right now we have to live with just the Java VMs.

What is available are some Java Virtual Machines that will run Java applets and programs. Sun recently made available a beta copy of their PersonalJava Runtime Environment. You will find it at http://java.sun.com/products/personaljava/. Right now this product will only run on Handheld PC Professionals with MIPS processors.

The only other Java VM that I know about is NSIcom's CrEme. CrEme is an augmented Java Virtual Machine, specially configured to run in the Windows CE environment. It represents a significant enhancement of NSIcom's extensive Java product line. CrEme was designed and optimized for standard Windows CE devices, including palmtop appliances, handheld PCs and PDAs. CrEme is based on Sun's JVM, which NSIcom adapted. The result is an easy-to-install, robust product with a small footprint. It provides a Windows CE device with all the power of Java - portability, connectivity and the rest - without in any way reducing the power of the Windows CE environment itself. And, what's more, it's available now, off-the-shelf, for a broad and increasing family of standard devices of the types mentioned above.
