SLOW??? I use my Nokia 770 as a TOOL... I have installed and use *only* software that is needed to get my tasks done. Basically, I use Web, E-Mail, Radio, RSS Reader, GoogleTalk, and GAIM. I don't like Eye Candy (Microsoft makes Great Eye Candy!). The only "Slow"-part I see is when the Nokia 770 is starting up. Once it is running, I am able to accomplish my tasks, FASTER than the Palm TX.

I also own 2 Javascript-based phones: Motorola V360 and Nokia N70.

I am not running any Javascript programs on the Motorola V360.
On the Nokia N70, I keep Yahoo!Go & Messenger all the time. This phone is constantly connected to my mail server, and notifies me when I receive E-Mail. This eliminates having a computer E-Mail client loaded up & checking. The N70 runs only programs that I need it to run... (No Games!).

For me, I don't compare devices on SPEED... The Usefulness of a device is important to me. There are no Games on my Nokia 770, except the Chess program, which I never play. And, again, the Nokia 770 is a Great Tool!
