Same here, Just ordered Nokia 770, and now searching about for rs mmc cards and trying to find out the upper GB limit as well?
I use Blueface.ie for the phone via Breeze rooftop.Aaron wants to know if the unit is SIP enabled, I'm not able to answer that yet either! As a complete newbie to Linux (have run UBUNTU successfully on my old desktop and mighty impressive it was too!)
As regards code I'm on a steep curve here, so I think the Nokia 770 will be a good purchase at the expansys.ie price currently. Notice it has the 2006 OS so I think much will have to wait until the units are fired up to see what version is in there?

I've never run any form of Linux before, but I did do a little work on Unix systems in my Uni days (close on 20 years back).
The upper GB limit on MMC is 2gig .... and practically thats the same on SD as well (discounting SDHC, although apparently thats mainly a firmware issue, not hardware?).
Regardless, both my colleague and myself have gone and ordered the 770, and 2 x 2gig cards to play with. the 2 gig cards were CHEAP - less than £7 from SVP.
Its going to be handy if they are shipping with the 2006 OS, wouldn't particularly want to start with a new bit of kit and having my first experience being an OS update.

My bad ... typo - they are RSMMCs that we've ordered
Just under £7 a pop ain't bad at all.
Its a bleedin' wind up with all the different memory card formats that I've got hanging around.
PSP/W810i - Memory Stick Duo Pro
N73 - SD (I wish they'd update the firmware with SDHC support)
Canon A70 - CF
And when i was back at the ex-wifes house, add in Micro SD (moto phones), Xd cards (cameras).
Total madness!

Thanks Clonmult for that and 
Karel Jansens for the reminder about the Reduced Size card format (RS) I have not ordered the upgrade cards yet, still looking will try SVP ?

have heard plenty of people having issues with memory card compatibility of various Nokia phones (invariably S40). Is there a similar issue with the 770? I'm tending to think not due to the completely different hardware/OS as to other Nokia devices.
