I think it depends what you are looking to get out of the Nokia770. If you are just using it as a remote (and not also for internet browsing, IM, email etc), I personally find it more than adequate. The recent upgrade to the OS has helped matters as you can now create and use a swap memory partition very easily (whereas before you had to hack the OS). It is still web-based, but I'm not quite sure what you mean by any compromise of functionality that results ? Do you mean that any web/ui will inevitably run slower than a proprietory remote ? The Nokia770 skin developed by Ben is full featured and intuitive. I think you can try it yourself on a normal box providing you use Firefox rather than IE to see whether you like the style. -- Siduhe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Siduhe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=723 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27156 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
