It's the normal sun-jre, josm doesn't work at all with open-jre, not sure if they fixed the code to be more compatible or not since I last tried it.

The benefit of JOSM etc is they are offline editors and you don't loose changes if you loose connectivity, JOSM also has a live GPS plugin to map your path directly on it, I use it on a 7" eeePC and works great, I'm slowly getting used to the smaller keyboard/touchpad.
