Ubuntu has the latest version of Java installed (version 6 update 10 build 33), but Firefox still uses the old plugin. They have a new plugin now that has features like draggable applets, jnlp-based applets, and a quicker loading time. But new applets like these won't work in Ubuntu:

I posted instructions for enabling the new plugin in Firefox here:
