You can do that indeed, then I'll simply fetch it over and people can have it quickly and your dsl line won't slow down to a creeping halt.

When a more-or-less working base image is there (read: one can run custom binaries without flashing and the base functionality is there), or one has the emulator working then coding user-space applications are far from difficult, especially as the factor 'bricking' is out of the loop. Most people don't like to tinker with a 600 EUR toy...
Most likely many applications made ready for the Maemo platform can also be used on the PIMP:

Though a N770 has a 220-MHz ARM9 OMAP-1710 which has a bit more power afaik. Biggest problem IMHO with that thing is that it only has a 64mb SD card, which is nothing at all compared to a 40Gb PiMP, which makes the PiMP much better for carrying around, especially as long as there is no 24/7 and everywhere WiFi where one has to pay a lot of cash for... Then again a N770 has touch screen which is very handy. (The next model will have a smallish disk I heared rumors of though)...
