Well, lazy I can understand, but if you need FBReader, it's been ported
I think the functionality outweighs the minor problems (and current lack of applications)

Yeah, you can't revert. Nice of them to warn us of that.
I'm using OS X
./flasher.macosx -F Nokia_770_SE2005_5_2006_13_7.bin -f -R
Found image 2nd (length 8576)
Found image secondary (length 79360)
Found image xloader (length 13824)
Found image initfs (length 1553408)
Found image kernel (length 1481856)
Found image rootfs (length 57121792)
Suitable USB device not found, waiting
USB device found found at bus 002, device address 004-0421-0105-00-00
Unsupported board (id = 0x0000)
Also, if you enable virtual memory, you can't remove it. I had extrootfs on the old card, and if you enable it, it doesn't switch to that but creates the new extension on your memory card part, so I can't seem to format my RS-MMC since there are no working apps yet.
My 512mb card stands as 128MB extrootfs + 384 MB (with 64MB virtual memory on this part)
So everyone beware.

I agree pretty much with everyone's insight so far...
Big pluses for me:
+You don't have to choose an AP every damn time you open a browser window; you can choose to have it connect auto to a list of chosen WLAN's.
+Much "snappier". Menu's pop-up faster, things react quicker, the "feel" is a HUGE improvement. I'm sure the virtual memory extension will make this even better, but I won't risk messing with that right now.
+You can re-arrange the applets on your Home page (ie. clock, internet radio, etc), and there is an option to add additional ones (which of course isn't yet supported; it's BETA).
The only negatives I can think of are that not THAT many people use GoogleTalk, you can't have extended contact info like phone #'s and stuff, and the browser crashes sometimes.
But big deal, the device is so much more usable now!I'm sure it's not long now before minor inconveniences/bugs are fixed and apps are ported to the new OS.
P.S. I flashed using this method:
(Worked in about 2 minutes, props to whoever posted that earlier in the thread)

Has anyone had any luck with remapping the zoom rocker buttons to scroll or page down in the new OS? It used to work in 2005 by editting the mapping for f7 and f8, but i can't seem to get it to work in 2006. I have used both xterm as well as a ssh connection to change input.ini remotely to no avail. Suggestions?
