Something must be up with mine.
Im gonna have to Hard reset my n900 cause my auto rotate feature take a while and is only getting slower (7-10 secs!)
Anything over 1-2 secīs sounds pretty weird, so I see your point
Any chance you got stuff from xtras-dev installed that might chew performance on the phone?

Try start up x-terminal and run the Top command and see if something strange show up on top of the list.

Does the slowness take place everytime or just every-now-and-then?

*edit

Aye, very valid points about the phone app, could be improved alot with tabs for missed calls etc, sometimes itīs a pain to figure out your missed calls.
If you click on the redmarked missed call, it switches to a called number and you loose info like when the person called etc.

So yes very good basic suggestions om improved phone UI by Niqbal

PHONE APP INTERFACE DESIGN
click on phone app -> dialing pad opens
1: click on call button once (empty string) should open call log
2: call log page should also contain dialled/received/missed call tabs
3: hold a number (2-9) should start speed dialing number
phone app drop down menu -> assign speed dials
4: ussd code functionality be available

except for voice dialing this would put a solid phone app in n900
On a personal note I still see the N900īs as a very early version software that will be polished alot during 2010, heck itīs not even properly out here in Sweden yet, store delivery is scheduled mid february.
