Does somebody know what JVM can run on a Raspberry Pi ? Or maybe somebody in here already made it work ?! :-)

I think you'll see a headless version come very quickly.

The pi can happily run a full linux distro with GUI, and Java is available on the ARM architecture.  It's quite possible that it already works out of the box.

I think everyone believes the OpenJDK will be portable onto the device so I'm not sure who's going to get there first but I do know a number of people are just waiting to get their hands on one so they can give it a go.

Some examples here:

On the Raspberry Pi I would imagine speed is of less significance than
memory use, however.
