Just to be fair. (And I'm not saying the 770 is in the same realm or class or species as the N800/N810!! :-)

I have kept my 770 mostly clean. OS2006. And I try to use it within it's scope. I try not to run too many applications at once, etc. (I usually have xterm open all the time, and then whatever other app)
(I found out recently that xterm, Opera, pypackager, and an application install was too much at once. :-)
And I almost never have freezes, and reboots are rare.

There are a few of us who are pretty happy with our 770's.
Then again, I'm happy with my Apple IIe and my Panasonic 3DO too.
