I am running this app on (I believe) the most recent production version
of the 770 (downloaded and installed using the Windows flasher -
according to the Device information it is 3.2005.51-13.
I have attached my network.c file and two header files.  The connection
code is based on the osso-ic example with a few changes and additions.
Network connection is made with a call to get_connected.  Let me know if
this helps...
