Well..
Now that you have your 770 setup to be your ereader again.
and ...
Now that you have your n810...
and the n800 is coming...
knuckle down.
get up to speed and get diablo turbo onto sd cards and cloned to a nice spot on your pc first for your n810..
then for the n800 when it shows up.
Then I believe you can safely play and screw things up to your hearts content..poking around, and experimenting like all inquisitive souls should....
And "old tech" is completely subjective.
Cheap ...yes...
undervalued for sure in the market.
which is good for us...
Keep shouting publicly.. "NIT devices are old, outdated, bricks!...Not worth a penny!" ...The more people hear it and believe it...The more it makes it more affordable for new people
thank goodness for the most part..even the latest great discoveries, innovations, new programs etc etc..aren't really seen outside our community...and hence don't affect a rise or fall in the going price for the devices...
If the market paid attention ...the value of our devices would mark them as unaffordable
I still am constantly amazed and amused by my n8x0's and n900's..
I still think the devices are ahead of their time...
Since they give us the users sooooo much choice, power and control compared to the stuff on shelves today.
