I want actually only a reasonable version of "abiword and gnumeric" (or an alternative) for my Nokia 770 version 2006. Writely works not on the Nokia 770 2006 Browser

But there is probably nothing - Which alternative gives it - It cannot be nevertheless, that already again ms in front is - such a muck

thanks for your assistance

The Nokia 770 2006 is very good - but the availability of functioning software at the moment is very bad - unfortunately
Maybe we can start an e-mail campaign to ask Softmaker (http://www.softmaker.com/english/) to port their applications to the 770? They're not cheap (EUR 69.95 for a bundle of the wordprocessor and the spreadsheet), but the quality is excellent and they're not very resource-hungry.

Also, from the specs (http://www.softmaker.com/english/ofldetail_en.htm) it appears they don't need any special libraries except glibc (and that can hardly be called specialized).
