I suspect that any "Support" from Nokia will come by way of bug-fixes only. Don't count on any major feature enhancement. I think that application development will be supoprted on the 770 from some time to come as the incompatibilities between OS2006 and OS2007 seem to be greatly exaggerated. After all the doom and gloom that I heard, most of the apps built for the 770 ran just fine on the N800. The problem will start to come up that this process may not be reversible (sw built for N800 may not run on the 770).
I hope some community support starts to develop such that some of the bora desktop features (bug menu buttons, grouped taskbar icons, bora compatibility libraries, etc.) get ported over to OS2006 and maybe extended beyond bora such that you can replace your old Opera with a newer Minimo or alternative and have it work seamlessly.
That may be dreaming though.
