Re: What OS are you using?

I have a pair of 770's which are running OS2006. It does what I want and it stable ... no reason to change. If I got a third table, tho, I'd use it as a guinea pig. :)

Re: Screen is a bit wacky

One of my 770's has a similar issue. My wife used to use it heavily for texting via pidgin, though, so it might be a symptom of overuse in my case. It also sometimes doesn't register a stylus press...

I still like my little Irxon minikeyboard ... it works with my pair of 770 tablets just beautifully.

Re: t3 worst gadget 23 of 25

I've owned three 770s. One got a WSOD right away and was replaced by Nokia. The other has worked just fine for years, as has the replacement 770.

If they're been used for a while, chances are...

Re: Can't get Nokia 770 to update software

Re: Where can I find a drop-in Maemo Mapper 2.4.x?

Did the above, and it works fine now. Duh. It's been so long since I've used apt-get that I didn't even think to play with it.

I have a Nokia 770 running OS2006, and the first is running a pile of applications and utilities including Maemo Mapper 2.4.1 along with my AMOD ABG-108 bluetooth GPS.

It all works just great. ...

Re: Tablet owners: What is your primary operating system?

At work, my primary desktop OS is Windows XP, but I spent as much time on one or more servers as I do on the desktop, and those are running either Solaris or OS 2200.

Re: Preferred method of text entry poll

I use Midnight Commander in OSSO Xterm on my 770, but I usually use the stylus to pull down menus, navigate, etc.

It's a lot easier with a bluetooth keyboard, tho.

Re: Preferred method of text entry poll

I can't pick just one. I prefer using the stylus/virtual keyboard on my 770 for most general stuff, but I vastly prefer using my little bluetooth keyboard when doing stuff in an Xterm or via VNC.
