When did Java first get a JIT compiler for production code?

Borland had the first one followed shortly by Symantec. Sun licensed the Symantec one. Symantec demoed theirs in March of 1996.

October 25, 1996 Sun announces first Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler for Java platform

Also, from wikipedia: Since JRE version 1.2, Sun's JVM implementation has included a just-in-time compiler instead of an interpreter. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_(Sun)

I believe HotSpot debuted in 1.3, though it was available as a plugin to 1.2.
