Just was looking at this today. Sadly, I'm not a code monkey (though I adore the song), but I ran across two article for converting Java to iPhone apps. Uncertain if jailbreaking is required or not.

I might be interested in attempting a full port to iOS, though it
could be a maintenance nightmare, unless the port is managed as
another project with it's own version baseline.

Existing Vassal users might argue that they'd sooner see more coders on the e
xisting engine, but for those who rely on mobile devices for this sort of thi
ng (an ever-growing crowd), Java isn't the best option.
Plus, with the popularity of the AppStore, a Vassal port to iOS could potenti
ally bring a lot more players (and through them, coders) to the main Vassal p
roject. I don't think such a port would therefore draw resources away from th
e Java engine long term.
How about the new Droid-X?... You can develop apps in JAVA for it.
