Java 2007: The year in preview

Java 2007: The year in preview: "Personally, I'm underwhelmed. I'd like to see the Java platform adopt a more Eiffel-like approach in which we could actually use public fields. However, if getters or setters are defined with the same names as the fields, then reads and writes to the fields are automatically dispatched to the methods instead. It uses less syntax and it's more flexible."

Why java wants to be complex? These fancy things has no use! isn't it?
