Ah, what would we do without the crazies of the world? Seriously, for $300 you got a pocket sized Linux computer that can connect wirelessly to the Internet (2 ways), high-res screen, with the ability to view images, video (locally or streaming), pdfs, notes, and more. You can listen to music (locally or streaming), there's simple games, chat/voip client, RSS reader, email, calculator, clock (with customizable alarm), and that's just in the software you get right out of the box.
There are a lot of developers (of varrying levels) that are working extra hard to port/build/optimize software for the 770 because it's such a unique device, and because it was started as an open platform it will become strong as more people use, test, and build the software that makes it an even better platform.
Yeah, it's a chicken-egg debate, but we are all chickens/eggs that can and will play our part. Okay, I don't know if that made any sense, but you get the idea.
