Sweet! Thanks for checking. It seems to be  pretty light on the drive space and RAM which makes it difficult to use as a media player, but if it's capable of streaming without any issues, it might be worth the money. 

Is there some way to find out which apps can be installed on it?

You can install mplayer, so if you can view the orb content with
mplayer, you should be able to view it with the 770.  Also, I tried
hitting http://www.orb.com/4u with the default browser on my 770 and
it said "Congratulations!"
