There are, for certain devices. See, for example, kAWT. To provide a decent implementation of AWT, low-level access to the hardware is required. There is thus no fully portable AWT implementation. It’s worth bearing in mind that the decision not to use AWT as the user interface model for MIDP was not taken lightly; a full implementation of AWT is likely to have at least a 100 kB memory footprint. You might get away with this on a PDA, but it’s doubtful that you’ll be able to support mobile phones.
