Unfortunately for me, I liked the design (hard slip cover, etc) even more than the features/specs..
So I preferred my 770...

And I even like OS2006.. Responsive, stable, fast booting. ;-)

Re: Pandora music on N770?

I still use my 770 daily.
As for Pandora, it looks like its "flash" based, so it's probably not likely.
There are some hacks to get a flash 9 player on the 770, but I'm not sure how well they work,...

Re: Who finds themselves coming to these forums less after the change of image?

What amazes me is two things.
First, that the admins apparently didn't anticipate the reactions.

Re: How to view youtube on the nokia 770

Personally, I use Canola to view/save Youtube files. I have also used uktube, although it's not as easy as Canola.
Only issue with Canola is that the new version of C2tube isn't "supported" on the...
