New Nokia 770 Firmware Out, new SpotYah and Bashpodder

I just checked the download site for the Nokia 770 and a new version of the firmware is out.  It’s called OS 2006 Edition version 3.2006.49-2.  I have loaded it on my 770 and it seems to be a bit zipper.  I wish I knew what was fixed, but the release notes have not been posted to the Nokia site yet.

Since I had to rebuild my 770 after the firmware update, I also discover that SpotYah has finally had updates for Python 2.5 which has been available for quite sometime.  Check it out here.

I also got Bashpodder working yet again on the 770. Here’s a hint…put the script on your MMC and then all you have to do is install wget and osso-xterm.  You don’t need bash.  It runs fine under sh.  Run it by typing: sh bashpodder.shell at the prompt .  You have to do this because your running off of a FAT16 or FAT32 (not sure which…) filesystem and the Unix permisisons just do not exist for sh to check.
