Yeah, thanks. The trouble was that re-downloading it on the N800 kept giving me the incomplete package (some cache I couldn't find kept assuming I really wanted a crippled file). I ended up downloading it to my pc and copying the -- now complete -- file to my card.

Interestingly, the corrupt file was three times larger than the healthy one. Is someone trying to feed viruses down the Itablet pipeline?
