My experience has been very similar. Unquestionably mostly positive. The performance of the application has gone from prohibitively slow to faster than I believed possible in just a few weeks, so a big thankyou for that. I think it's now faster than Videocenter in item browsing and feed switching, though it's hard to recall since I haven't ran that since joining in here!

I had the same feelings about the scrolling. At first I had expected it to only be an issue on rare occasions on which i'd like to scroll a long way down an episode list, but actually when driving today scrolling from A down to T took 4-5 swipes in my 20 feed list. If the truely kinetic scrolling is possible, it would be preferred. It's very intuitive especially on an alphabetical list.

I love the gestures. When I remember to use them it all feels very slick.

The only problem i'm having now, and I think this kicked in before the test package was installed, is the heavy load rebooting when updating feeds. I have experienced this three times now, once when also playing audio in Panucci and twice when the device was otherwise idle. This is a very nasty bug, as there's potential data loss. I don't feel safe pressing update feeds if I have anything unsaved now. It seems particularly strange as previously the updating process froze the entire tablet up, whereas now it doesn't seem anything like as intense, however it never rebooted for me back then, but it will now.

I also think i'm seeing it happen when I have the power plugged in, if that could mean anything?

I've heard this get mentioned before. Is there an existing bug I can tag on to?
