Can't answer question 1. About the java version, I'm curious
if you tried it with PTViewer. That would have the advantage
that a person only has to download one file (ptviewer.jar).
Of course, other tradeoffs.
The pano looks good for java. I noticed a few pixels missing
along the seam. Is that due to the difficulty in getting two
exactly opposite frames? I thought you would use three, from
my email reading. Never tried it myself.
