I have logged a defect against App Engine relating to it not supporting FileWriter, Threads and Network Connections. I would urge (beg) you all to go to the Google defect page and vote for this defect to be fixed by Starring it.

Hopefully if enough people point out the sheer stupidity of this Google will get the message and fix it and then perhaps we can actually make use of what has the potential to be an awesome platform.

I think it's only those limitations which allow Google to provide a scalable, cheap service. Have you considered using Amazon EC2?
Tom,
EC2 is what I am falling back to for now ...
The problem is that I need to use the Google User Service. I also want to expose my app through Google Apps.
I also have clients who are looking to use App Engine to migrate legacy apps and integrate with Google Apps. For them I am also considering how I will combine EC2 with App Engine to do what they need.
The point is I should not have to do this; the full Java API should be supported and not just bits of it. From an Enterprise perspective, this is a major issue.
