For woobies, a thread exploring all aspects of security for the Nokia 770 would seem to be essential. Moving the discussion beyond default options provided by Nokia (wep, ssl, etc.) would be especially enlightening (though an overview including the importance of the actual configuration, use, and limits of these options might be a good place to start).

Moving outward from there, a few obvious topics come to mind:

-VPN

Why is it particularly important for the 770?

Stinghorn no longer seems to be an option. Does anyone have experience with Hamachi or another?

-Privoxy

A general discussion of why it is important to 770 security?

Here are links to threads covering its availability and installation:

"Not using a Microsoft Operating System."

Seriously, that's now considered an applicable security "plus" in today's IT world.

Oh yeah, you forgot about ipchains.

I haven't looked at any options on the 770, but I see that OpenVPN is mentioned in the 2006 Application catalog, as well as Tinc, which sounded interesting because it is moderately easy to configure and is a mesh system (you don't need to connect to a specific machine allocated as a server), but I could never get it working on PC, it always claimed that the keys did not match, when they were identical.
