Good to hear. Hey, I may have a nonfunctional 770 you can have to play around with, or use for parts if you like.

I concur. The few moments here and there I've been able to get WiFi (everything's hardwired here at home...three desktops, no need for anything wireless before the tablet arrived...hehe) I've loved it.

I convinced my boss to hook me in to the park WiFi, so I should get some decent face time with this thing soon. (I'm a lifeguard...yep, i'll be browsing on the job. I'll leave it up to you to decide whether or not i'll do it when there are people swimming)

Just got approval for my samples.
I should get them within the week and then I'll try the hack.

I scrounged together all my remaining 770 and N800 odds and ends. I'll get back with you via PM when I have identified which 770 to send you for experiments.

Alright, sounds good. I ordered two samples, so if at all possible I'd like to try it on a semi-broken or broken one first before I go messing with mine

dude, just throw the thing in a little plastic baggie (one with a ziplock)
and browse underwater.....the touchscreen does just fine through plastic!

I used mine for high-sierra cross country trekking GPS mapper with pre-downloaded topo maps in a ziploc baggie for a week!!

I do have her in a plastic bag when at work, though I'm not sure I trust a ziploc to keep my electronics safe when fully submerged...I've had a lot of bags leak liquid out of the inside...certainly not reliable enough for my beloved internet tablet!
