Chad,
I don't think you necessarily have to have an either/or with respect to PL/SQL verses Java. You can use each to thier seperate advantage (ie. Java for GUI and PL/SQL for database operations).
I'm currently involved in a project using Java to handle the front-end with Oracle Web Server as the middleware talking to Oracle stored procedures for the DB work. So far I'm happy how this is working out.
