Thanks for the description, it is helping quite a bit trying to get a development environment set up for the 770 under parallels on my mac. At least I can keep trying under parallels!
I must say though it is almost like they don't want you to write software for this device it is such a pain to install everything, or maybe I expect too much. I know if you want to write stuff for microsoft mobile devices, you download the development tools in a single file, double click it and your done. I guess that is why they have a better reach with unspecial machines.

I think I have scratchbox installed anyway though, so just need the 770 stuff. Is there a simple guide (that actually works, unlike the ones I found) for the 770?
