I thought that they were giving up on making these? Is this the last one?

Oracle has publicly announced that they're going to do that ...

They have, but you're post implied that it's available right now.

Java SE 7 is supposed to be out next month, so I'm assuming we might see the Mac OS X JRE from Oracle then.

Apple is supposed to continue supporting Java SE 6 (the current version).

Oracle will take over with Java SE 7 due out next month.

Just FYI, Oracle will be releasing Java 7 next Thursday, July 7th.

I am only follow OpenJDK, is that official Oracle version now or just open source implementation? It should be available on the 21th of July for Windows/Linux/BSD/Solaris/etc. Mac OS X version will follow only after a few months. Apple guys are still porting things to OpenJDK and their are missing some parts.

Ah, sorry. No, it's not available right now. Thank you. And while SE 7 is set to be released in about a week, statements from Oracle and Apple show that Mac OS X support for Java 7 will follow after a few months, as stated below. Which makes my accidental implication even more wrong, haha.
