I disagree.. I used the 770 for a while, and have found winmobile 6.1 to be wayyyy more user friendly and a lot easier to find apps for. Maemo is just too cumbersome to work with for most people.
I've since sold my nokia internet tablet, and use my HTC mogul phone (with full querty keyboard and wifi) all the time now. I use the skyfire and netfront browsers most of the time, GPS enabled google maps, and also have tomtom navigation software installed on the phone too.
there are literally thousands of free wm apps out there, and I've loaded my phone up with everything I could possible need on it. I also run a customized ROM built by people in the htc community that adds some features and runs faster than the sprint released ROM.
My phone hasn't crashed or frozen in months. something that was almost a daily occurrence with the nokia IT.
I love installing apps on this thing. no repositories, no dicking around with command line apps, just click on a .cab file and it installs.
The IT is a nice device, but requires a lot more patience and a time to get familiar with the workings of the OS in order to maximize its use. In the end, its still more limited than my HTC phone. I just can't understand why people seem to think maemo is better, other than their hate for M$.

...the 810 was considerably more at the time, and doesn't include the GPS function, which was extra (last time I checked anyway).
