Hey, I just got a second-hand Nokia 770. There's quite an overwhelming amount of information on maemo.org and elsewhere, and much of it probably refers to the newer tablets, so I thought I'd ask for some pointers on getting started. First of all, how can I find out which firmware and OS version the tablet is running? And how can I upgrade to the latest versions that will run on the 770? And second, where should I look for repositories and other places to find applications for the 770? I was really hoping, since the OS is debian-based, that I could get a terminal emulator and use apt to install things like mutt, nano, vim, ssh, mplayer, hpodder, etc. There's a lot I could do with a terminal and access to the debian repos. I found two "Osso X Terminal Emulator" entries under OS 2006 on the maemo downloads page but neither works. I also found this <http://770.fs-security.com/xterm/> but haven't tried it yet. I guess I first need to figure out which version of the OS is the newest that I can run and then look for software for it. The applications that came with it look quite good so far but I really need a decent email application. The provided one seems nice and simple but doesn't work. First it would hang for a long time while receiving an email, soon the application stopped even opening. I managed to install Claws Mail from maemo.org but that crashes a lot too, as well as hanging for hours at a time trying to download thousands of emails. A terminal and mutt might be ideal.
