Well, its been a few more days since I wrote this initial thread, and I think its is really growing on me. I may "may" have been harsh in my first post, nah, I really do not like the way in looks, I just don't like the silver, I think I prefer black. That said, this thing feels real nice in your hand. I always used my case on my 770, so it felt weird at first. One reason that I really did not like the 770 without the case was the bottom where the USB/power/mic/stereo area did not feel right in my hand. I am really looking forward to some sort of aftermarket case, I dropped my 770 twice both times about 4 feet, both times it landed on the bottom corner, the case had lots of scratches on it. It does concern me, but hey I have to buy a new one next year right?

Its just a matter of time before the software projects catch back up, there is work to be done with many apps but many 2006 apps are working just fine.

The USB host mode does not appear to be included or possibly supported. Its possible that the support was left out of the kernel, I am hoping it was not left off the device. I purchased a battery powered USB hub, a female to female USB adapter and a USB cable with a extra USB power cable. It allowed me to run USB devices on my 770. I used it once and sent in my 770 for repair, I never saw it again, nokia paid me $240 for it and I bought a n800 for $399. I guess if it does not work, there should be some cheap 770's out there? 75$ for 770 ANYONE ANYONE?



Overall the experience on the n800 is more appealing, its faster, and feels cleaner, even when your browser crashes!!!
