For OS 2006 compatible applications please see ApplicationCatalog2006.

Many of the applications listed here can be installed from one of the repositories listed in ApplicationRepositories. That is often a better way of installing applications, for the following reasons: you will get up-to-date versions (and the system will be able to check for updates), and you will not have to track dependencies manually.

Before adding warnings such as ...about 20 minutes after installing this software my N770 started to make crackle sounds and a few minutes latter it smell of smoke... on this page, please discuss your issue with the software's author, maintainer, porter, provider, or at least on the maemo mailing lists, http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-users/ or http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/. Or report a bug in https://maemo.org/bugzilla/.
Was this a one time deal? Can a guru comment?

What do you mean?
The apps for N800 "OS2007" are not backwards compatible with the 770 "OS2006" unless you install the OS2007 Hacker edition for the 770.
