I also have a Nokia 770 - Had it for month or two so far and like it. The GPE suite so far is enough for me, and the VNC client works like a charm to my desktop when I need it. Also have Abiword, which opens/edit my .doc files on the device, and MaemoPad for a gui based text editor. I have a 3650 Nokia phone, and the bluetooth between the two has been flaky at best. I suspect it could be the older Nokia phone that is the problem though..

Connecting to secure/insecure WLAN's is nice and easy, but have not found a way to authenticate to LEAP - tried using the EAP, but no luck.

In the future, I would like to see the usage of the microphone that is suppose to be built into the bottom of the device for recording conferences, meetings, etc.

I use a Nokia 770 with the GPE suite. It does have an entirely
replaceable battery (in fact it's a standard Nokia cell phone one). It's
not 'really' a PDA, and a touch bigger than others, but I like having the
bigger screen. It's full Linux, with GTK+ and mostly standard libraries
included.

And the source code for the builds is at:
