Well I've installed it on my 770 and so far it's looking very good!

I haven't tested much, but the browser (which obviously hasn't been updated) seems to be working fine, control panel seems OK, the home page is as it should be.

The first problem I've hit is that it's not possible to stream from AccuRadio HitKast - the error is "File format not supported" (have reported this in Garage).

No crashes so far!

EDIT: Hmmm, looks like MP3 codec won't be shipped in the OS 2007 on 770 firmware - according to the end of Markku's Wiki log:

Things that cannot be shipped to 770 users

These things in OS 2007 are not licensed for 770 and cannot be shipped to 770 users. Therefore they are taken out of the image:
  • New browser engine
  • Feature MP3 codec, mobile phones - this is a DSP codec - according to Makoto and Andrea it is however the same as in the 770...
  • Feature MPEG4 visual encoder - this is a DSP codec that has to be removed - it's packaged as gstreamer-hantro or something
