OS2007 software has been mostly tested with N800 hardware, so I think
there is not going to be 'official' OS2007 release for 770 (I think
Carlos said that already). However, it's possible that there will be
unofficial close-to-OS2007 image for 770 for developers at some point of
time (there is some work ongoing, but no promises, since the work is not
finished yet).
