I have a right to express my opinion. I've spent around $460 for two 770s, so I payed my membership dues.

to be honest, i dont see why anyone would want to do that when its not the "official" way of installing apps on the n900.
your apps dont get updated by themselves and all this stuff. its a lose-lose-situation.
