@Markismus For the H2O you'd need to change various things of which I have little conception (from uboot to X.org); hence the changed sources for the HD are paramount. However, I haven't had the time to spare to look into it. On top of which, the risk is really too high for me at the moment. I have a pristine device which would prefer to stay that way for a while longer. :P

Only to a limited extent. But it does (sometimes) work. I tried it at various times over multiple days and it finally gave me something of a 200 kB/s download speed. That's still pretty slow, but it's slow of a whole different order than 10-30 kB/s…
