I was reading that this was due to the apps being copied from flash into
ram to be exectuted.
It says somewhere on their site that they developed a kernel which executes
the apps from flash now, and that seems to be workin a lot better....

I got to use one at CeBit. It was very very slow. It had massive memory
management issues - switching apps took ~5 seconds. You can't run that
many apps. The build quality was very very poor.
But that's just a first impression. Barring that, it's a lot cheaper than
a Pilot or an iPaq.
