Everybody is at JavaOne...
Are you asking for a timeout of a @Timeout call? It's not currently possible. The EJB Timer waits for the @Timeout callback to complete to calculate the next time of the call. You might want to redesign your app in such a way that the method marked for timeout doesn't hold the thread.
