>From  http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/relnotes/features.html#i18n :
Unicode 3.0 Support
          Character handling in J2SE 1.4 is based on version 3.0 of the Unicode standard.
          This affects the Character and String classes in the java.lang package as well as the
          collation and bidirectional text analysis functionality in the java.text package.
