Jon Dee, blame the user, not the device. Running small footprint Linux, these Atom MIDs will be plenty quick.

There looked to be a real lag time with the touch screen interface on this device.

What I like about my Apple iTouch is that when you interact with a photo it’s instant. This is where Mac are streets ahead of anything that is windows based at the moment… I use an O2 Flame phone and it can be so SLOW sometimes.

When the 3g iPhone comes to Australia I am so making the switch :O)

There weren't as many MIDs around to play with as I had hoped, and what few there were had mobs surrounding them at all times.

I'll get them to give me one to use sooner or later, or die trying! ;-)</p></div>

Thanks for the post, Kevin! There weren’t as many MIDs around to play with as I had hoped, and what few there were had mobs surrounding them at all times. I was lucky to get a little one on one time.
