Well, this is not exactly true. Sun indeed said explicitly that
JavaFX-Script will be GPLd, but regarding JavaFX-Mobile, I read the

"JavaFX Mobile, Sun's software system for mobile devices, is available via
OEM license to carriers, handset manufacturers and others seeking a
branded relationship with consumers"
