Maybe this is getting a little off-topic, but I'm developing a system
that uses IBM's XHTML+Voice technology--currently supported in Opera
>8.53. Does anyone know if the 770's browser supports speech-enabled
browsing? And kiosk mode?

Urp!  >$100 for a keyboard?  I guess I've gotten spoiled by never having
to pay more than $20 for a keyboard for the past several years.  The
website that Ben cited above mentions that people have gotten usb
keyboards to work with the 770.  Is there anything special that one
needs to do for that?

bluetooth keyboard support, yes--
http://770.fs-security.com/maemo-bt-plugin/

I have this keyboard and it works well. the keyboard, folded, is almost
exactly the size of the 770. the two can fit in a (large) pants pocket
easily.

Opera is the web browser. It must be a pared down version from the full
desktop browser, but it's likely closer to a desktop Opera than Opera
"mini", made for PDAs. My experience is that the 770 browser is
*superb*.

And yes, it's a true touchscreen.

FWIW, internettablettalk is indeed the de facto 770 forum, but to be
honest I typically get better answers, even about the 770, on
slimdevices. Just a better community here.

cheers,
#!/ben

'Thry the forums here.' (http://www.internettablettalk.com)

There's an unofficial bluetooth plug-in which supports many keyboards
and GPS units.

And I'd like to know if the 770's Bluetooth connectivity will support
the use of a bluetooth keyboard. Also, I hear it runs a browser that's
"based on" Opera... I wonder how different from Opera this browser is.
Could someone point me towards a forum that'll discuss this?
