Google Talk on the 770 is odd. Sometimes I won't be able to call out - not even to other Google Talk contacts. At first I thought something was up with Google Talk's servers, but the service worked just fine on my computer. So I just restarted the 770 and it started to work again. The 770 at this point with a BETA OS (don't forget - it's in beta form) is like a crappy router - when at first you don't succeed, unplug, wait a few seconds, and restart until they have the new firmware available.
