Thanks Bunanson. I thought I am the only one who is still using a 770 everyday and love it. Now I have two 770. The first one has 2006OS on MMC, the other one has OS2007HE on MMC. The reason I bought the second one was thinking to try Mer without messing up my first one since it runs so well. What a joke! Mer never has a useful version and now they dropped the ball. I have tried the OS2008HE. As you said, it does have a good potential, but the low sound problem does turn me off. I might give it a try again. Keep up the work.
Have you tried rdesktop and Canola 2? Do they work on 2008HE?
