Googling, I read that there's a residual problem with keyboard lag in the stock browser which was vastly improved with the Android 3.1 update and has apparently been fixed in 3.2 which is imminent. But I use Opera and there's no lag and nor is there with other browsers I've tried, such as Firefox.
3.2 is being rolled-out worldwide today. The Far East have had it already, but I'm still waiting.ringo_24601 wrote: »It's not really designed for power use or even proper business use.

You don't have to use widgets. If you just want a screen full of icons like the ipad, then just use the apps/menu button and they're all there.ringo_24601 wrote: »Also, i doubt my toddler could use.

Wow, I wish my parents had bought me a £400 piece of sheet metal and glass as a toy when I was a toddler!0
