The original negative reviews made me laugh after I finally had a 770 in my hands. Ever clicked on cnn.com under IE in WinXP and on the 770 at the same time? The 770 takes about 5-10 seconds longer to load the page - - than a #$&*#&*$&* P4 3.0GHz with a gig of RAM. Not bad for a scrappy 220mhz ARM processor with 64mb of RAM.

- - and on the side; the ethernet comment slayed me. I laughed so hard over that. Imagine it. A handheld, smaller than a book... with a big 'ole ugly blue cord coming out. Hi. I'm Hedgecore, and when I enjoy my mobile devices, I like being tethered to the wall.

So far as it not being a phone, I've got a pen here with a Microsoft logo on it... it's not like I expect to have to reboot it every 3 minutes to keep it writing.
