I'm currently using the N95 8Gb for a while and I recognize the same lag in navigating around the menus, although other multimedia orientated things the device does with huge speed. My point is, that newer more powerful devices essentially running the same OS don't work as fluently as Maemo, so it's not even about the power of the device! Its something inherent to Symbian SXXth ed. I was used to it too, but not anymore ...
Well, for starters, your devices have the latest firmware? Then, how it can inherent is many other devices (the newer E-Series devices would be an example) doesn't have such lag? Also, so far no Symbian device have the hardware that the N900 has. Maemo needs powerful hardare to run.

I would go as far as saying that your particular problems come from Symbian^1 struggling in bigger displays, because it wasn't designed to work with those, something that Symbian^3 addresses with hardware acceleration and memory optimization.

Seriously, do some research.

Compare it to an N8x0 running Diablo...
