Introduction
In order to run Papywizard, one needs to use at least a device with OS2007 (OS2008 is OK).
Nokia 770
This device is the first Internet Tablet made by Nokia. It is a very good device, but suffers from a lack of developpement from Nokia, which quickly switched to the N800 and N810. The default firmware is OS2006, which does not support python, needed to run Papywizard. So, the first step is to upgrade to OS2007HE (Hacker Edition).
