Reggie, I know you will post additional information as you get it (like an exact date). Can you tell us anything more than "official word"? I take that to be a Nokia employee speaking on the record.

Thanks for digging this out.

No exacact date was given. Let's just assume that it's the end of October. ;)

Damn! have to try and be patient for even longer!!

Reggie 2005-09-29 15:38

October should be the date. Nokia can't afford to delay it much longer, if they want to make the 770 one of THE devices to get for xmas. ;)

What, there will be some *competition* for the 770? Like all those HDed PPCs that haven't materialized in the wake of the LifeDrive? Please.

Get it right, Nokia. That's what I want.

This may be totally a stupid suggestion BUT... is it possible Nokia got word of the Apple "one more thing" event Oct 12 and wanted to hold off releasing the Nokia 770 to see what Apple may release? The rumor is a Video iPod or something similar perhaps to the Sony PSP, which may allow one to surf the net?

Just a thought.... Apple never ceases to amaze me!! ;)

Is this the New Apple Video iPod?

Check this out: http://www.engadget.com/ Scroll to find the "possible" video ipod pic... If this is 'it".. looks like a 3.5-4.0 inch screen??

Well, it's "officially" official that it's been delayed. Some quotes about why as well:

There were still quite a few bugs mid-September but the last two SW versions have really cleaned up the small stuff...it's starting to look real good now.
