BTW, I responded to this thread because of the tone and generalizations used by the OP.

Bingo. Same here.
I have zero problems, personally or otherwise, with people expressing frustration over a bad experience. That is well within everyone's rights (I won't get into the deeper issue of free speech in private fora... lol).
The problems occur when posters are antagonistic, ill-tempered, hyperbolic or willfully vague. I don't understand what they hope to accomplish with such ranting. Surely not a solution! If it's just venting, fine- spew and move on. But don't defend such an absurd approach further! Cripes, that's disingenuous beyond belief.
Rank complainers could learn from EwanG's example. He expressed righteous anger and disappointment, but he also stuck to facts and methodically described his experiences for everyone here. He NEVER succumbed to the juvenile baiting that's been going on lately. Nokia may have lost him as a customer, but the company had every opportunity to do right by him based on his diligence so he is well within his rights.
Now, back to the useless "contributions" of the trolls.

I think that some people (there sure are enough of them) who appear frequently in this Forum. Their main reason for being here is, lamenting about some or the other problems without really trying to find the solution to their problem. As of today I am using the same old Nokia 770 IT. It simply works well for me. I know well that there are so many others who have had a lot of problem with it. But honestly they never lamented so mush as someone here did. Now, it is a fact that there are so many people who own the latest Nokia N800, which of course is more updated, faster and better in many ways than the Nokia 770. This too, has its own problems and issues. But these problems and issues are the ones that can be solved. The reason for the existence of this Forum is the exchange of ideas, troubleshooting steps, clues, even hacks to make these two Internet Tablets work the way we want them to work.
Nokia simply gave us this Hardware with its basic OS, now it is up to us to make it work the way we want to. I don’t see the complainer ever trying to ask as to how he can get network connectivity or how he could make it work better. So without doing that he decided to flash it with the latest OS hoping that it will make the Device work. Unfortunately the way his computer is setup or assembled does not allow him that option.
I have a 7-year-old P3 computer installed with Windows 2000 SP4. When I first tried to update the Nokia OS on the 770 it did it easily. But to update the final Official OS, I had to update my computer first. How difficult is this? How come so many Computer experts, Linux experts and all the great people find it difficult to do this?
As for Windows genuine Advantage Utility, my Computer is 7 years old so is the Windows 2000 that is installed on it and yet I do not have the issue that this gentleman is facing. No time issues or anything as such. How come the Genuine Advantage thingy works for me? I think there is something more rotten in the state of Denmark.
