Perl's ease and speed of use are important. A lot of device vendors will ship sample developer kits with Java and C, but these take quite a bit of time to decipher. If I was developing a fancy expensive interface I would take the time to dig thru the developer kits. But a quick search on CPAN may reveal modules that will get you up and running in a couple of hours. Try that in Java. You could waste a week coding up a working example and have less functionality than in Perl.
