The first thing I would recommend (if you want a bit of a challenge) is to upgrade to the Hacker Edition of the OS2007 Operating system - you can find more info here:
http://os2007on770.garage.maemo.org/
The hacker edition looks better and there is better application support, I have found that it basically lets me install OS2007 apps on my 770 device - OS2006 is good but its old and OS2007 just looks better plus the latest hacker edition comes with Microb which is a full gecko mozilla compliant browser which works better on most sites than the old opera browser! Next step is to open this site in your browser
http://www.gronmayer.com/it/
and start setting up repositories - all you have to do is click on the links on this site and the application manager will do the rest. Next in the application manager you can click the button "Browse Installable applications" and this will now give you the full list of available applications. Have fun with this, the 770 has more limited space than the n800 so you will have to be a bit more selective on apps (the hacker edition also takes up more space than OS2006 but I think its worth it)
Jeremy.
