Ahhhh...
the over-exuberant enthusiasm of the new...
gotta love it..

Ridd ..if you can point people to really well rounded threads..or wikis with everything they need ...that would make things easier for those you are trying to help...
for example ...the n900 has ..."the perfect n900 setup" in the wiki...
there is the collection of 3 links in my signature which points to everything needed for the n8x0 - "Pimp my n8x0"
Pointing people to exactly everything needed to easily and simply set things up for their 770 would be a godsend ..especially considering a few things...
A- there isn't really anyone left around using the 770 religiously and is intimately knowledgeable and is posting in the 770 subforums anymore.
B- thread links and descriptions of methods of "how to" may or may not be accurate or work any longer considering the passage of time and no one around to update them...
C- you are in a great position, with a lot of the curiosity and passion needed to create a "perfect 770 setup" how-to.

So yeah...I know you are feelin' your way around here..tryin' things out ...etc...
but you may want to consider it...
it would immensely help a lot of new people who know next to nothing about the 770 (or maemo for that matter).. coming after you ..
who are hunting for a concise, easy to follow instructions, explanations and a holistic "how-to" for the 770...all in one location or thread, or wiki. ...that is current and layman-understandable...
It would be a great help.
