New OS2007 Hacker Edition Released For Nokia 770

The phone goes off beside my head this morning… 53 new messages (surely to God some I just haven’t read since last night – there can’t have been that much activity between 4am and 9:30am!) but one of those messages, via Conor O’Neill on Jaiku, points to Maemo.org’s announcement of a new release of the OS2007 Hacker Edition for the Nokia 770.

Great news in some parts, still no Skype support or Adobe Flash browser plugin while Media Player is “still buggy”. File Manager is reportedly working fine but there’s no sign of the Mozilla browser in this release, unless you want to add it in manually.

Lost for testing time today as I’m waiting on a health report from one of the bands coming down for the KKM gig tonight (leaves me a little up in the air) but I’ll get around to adding this update during the week. Interested in hearing any immediate feedback.

Check it out here for download.

    I may give this rev a miss. Really want that Mozilla browser. They also mention that there are problems with internet calls.

    Will try it as it supposedly fixes the certificate problem. This made the previous release impossible to use with some wifi hotspots…
