I find that I have to compare my items to similar items.

If I bought my N810 expecting it to completely replace my intel i7 2.66ghz desktop with 8GB memory.... then yes.. I imagine I would be extremely angry with how inefficient the n810 is.

However... When I've compared it side by side to an iPhone, Ipod Touch, and similar items that do similar things ... I see that the web browsing and other capabilities are at least on par; and with the added ability of expanding to thousands of free software, and even run full suite's like openoffice... the n810 comes ahead compared to the other handheld devices that I've seen.

The hardware in it just isn't beefy enough to be as efficient as a full computer.. but it CAN do most things a full computer can do; albeit with a little more patience.. and it fits in my pocket. I guess it all depends on what you bought it for.

I don't have a really bad browsing experience with my tablet... but I don't use the default browser all that often either.. I am usually running Deblet, Easy Debian, now Mer.. or even tried the Tears browser running around here.. and the only problems I've ever had browsing came in flash-heavy websites and only until I fixed my flash in whatever browser I was using at the time.

If it's not up to your standards I guess it's not there.. not much can be done about it.. It's a 400mhz ARMEL processor with 128mb ram. It would be comparable to a machine that's 10+ years old trying to keep up with all the new stuff. I think it does it pretty well.. considering.
