I've found it to be horribly clunky, and slow, even in comparison. I swear I read someone say it works amazingly well with Google Calendar -- that just causes it to lock up to either the point of rebooting itself or needing a reboot. I have a 1g card in the machine, with the additional vfat turned on for swap space.

That might be me, although I didn't quite say that. What is wrote was :
"Minimo is almost fast enough now, and it runs most Ajax sites that still break Opera in the 2006 OS : Google Calendar, NetVibes, etc..."

And I stand by my claim. Minimo runs all those sites that Opera doesn't. It may slow down sometimes but it gets the job done. And Google calendar doesn't freeze or lockup or reboot (although I don't have a 1Gb MMC with vfat swap, just the standard 64MB card and a 32 MB swap file from the memory applet).

Am I missing something? I'm not running beta, I'm not running Sardine... but, I am running out of hair.
Thoughts, suggestions?

Toss it, keep your hair, and try again next time ?

i have problem login into my yahoo mail, but gmail no problem at all.
chinese website with chinese fonts takes long time to load, maybe the 10 MB font file is too much for the N770.

Im a little suprised to read this.
I thought minimo ist just some dev-release with no practical use yet.
I cant go to any url of my choice cause the keyboard doesnt work.
I just can click those tiny icons which open some urls in a new tab, thats all.
There are also no menus anywhere, no Hildon-Support?
And yes i installed the latest release which was just announced.

i reinstalled it, it took about 30 secs to start up.
the keyboard still didnt work but then i discovered how to get into the preferences (small icon in the bottom left) and after leaving them (software keybaord was enabled by default) now the keyboard works.

looks much much better now :-)

The download link appears to be dead?

I was just trying it out and I gotta say that I am impressed!

It starts up slowly but once up it is functional and responsive.

It wasn't the speediest thing around in doing so but it handled Google Spreadsheet, Calendar and the full-blown Gmail page+builtin chat thing just fine. Of course opening up those three things all at once made it grind to a screeching halt. Still ... it didn't crash or cause the 770 to reboot or anything. The desktop killed it cleanly when it detected that it wasn't responding to the close button.

Good job with the port!
