I'm curious what you mean by bad reviews...what device doesn't have bad reviews?????

I use my 770 for just about everything and find it very fast and responsive for what I'm using it for. Install Privoxy to eliminate web ads and that will really zoom up websurfing on the 770. I use mplayer for watching video and have no problem watching full length movies i've converted over for the 770. The built in music player plays both local and streams music with no problem at all. Bought a bluetooth GPS unit and with maemo-mapper have avoided countless rush hour traffic jams! The list goes on and on!
