The 770 is at a mass-market price point now and people are finally talking about it.

Still love my cheap-as-sweet 770, but I certainly won't buy another tablet until I see how the next hardware upgrade is handled.
Nokia have publicly stated that Chinook (Maemo 4.0) through to Diablo (Maemo 5.0 I think but I could be wrong and it's in fact a minor version of 4.x) will support the N800.

I think it's safe to say that Nokia have learned their lesson from the 770 -> N800 upgrade fiasco.
