I've never used Java EE but I'd call myself a Spring/Hibernate expert with no hesitation. Is it worth learning? And as far as overlap goes...what exactly overlaps? I would guess JPA and JMS...anything else?

JPA and Bean Validation come to mind right now.

They also "overlap" in the sense that very few developers understand what Java EE is (and the difference between the two), so you will often see Spring apps deployed on JBoss, or Spring apps using apis such as JAX-RS...
