I installed the 2006 OS earlier this week, and agree with many of the
prior comments. The browser seems zippier and less prone to locking
up.

My experience is that the 2006 OS is a huge improvement, though part of that may have been me enabling some swap memory on the card. Certainly the web browser seems more responsive and will now handle eBay (which crashed it in the past).
No issues i've found yet.

i've flashed before from linux and it worked fine.
my earlier statement about windows only was directed at the nokia
website instructions, not @ what's actually possible.

Just updated to 2006OS and found a couple of things that are huge to the
usability of the 770 as a slimserver controller.
1. As atlslim posted earlier on this thread-- View->Show
Toolbar->uncheck fullscreen is "sticky" with reboot. That resolves a
major annoyance, since the Nokia770 skin relies o

Actually, I think in large part all of the skin-related changes are
done. I've been quietly updating the Nokia770 skin (as well as the
benevolent KDF) as 6.5 goe

I concur. Worse, you have to download the .Net framework or

Ben,
I took the plunge and overall things have gone well. The application
manager tool is helpful for the average user (me) to get new programs
installed easily. Someone has reported that feature to now be broken
but I haven't checked: http://m80.dyndns.org/770/index.shtml

The only one I've come across has been widely reported - additional
applications you've installed won't port across

going to do it later today and wanted to know if there are any other
significant gotchas. I'm esp. interested in problems with the

Upgraded to the new OS today and sort of freaked out when the 'now
playing' portion (upper 1/2) of the status.html page was blank. Turns
out Java Script is 'off' by default w/ the upgrade.
Of course if you read the tips section at the Nokia site
http://www.nokiausa.com/support/phones/softwareup
Aren't there still a few problems with it though - e.g. no support for
2GB RS-MMC cards and the now supported usage of the RS-MMC device as
Swap is limited to 64MB ... neither of which restrictions apply to
people who have been patching previous versions.
There are also quite a few bugs reported f
