Looks like OpenHand has just released Poky 3.0 on Aug. 1 and is now sporting a Nokia 800 image that is experimental.

Was wondering if anyone has tried this yet and if so what are your results? Unfortunately I only have a 770.

I've successfully installed it on my N800, check out my blog for a video of me using Poky on my N800.
Kind of negates the whole reason for an internet tablet.
I don't mean to get down on the effort, but come on... wifi is a basic for this device.

at https://garage.maemo.org/projects/cx3110x
so it should be no problem to include it.
or am i missing something?
edit: just found info on the closed binary only umac.ko driver module one needs, so it looks the driver is indeed not completely open source, hmmm this sucks!
but i also found this post on a free prism54 based driver port

anyone knows if this has worked out ok for the N770?
