Legend:
first colum: the tablets
2nd column: OS and boot, IF=internal flash boot, ExtSD=external SD boot etc
3rd column: time to make 128 MB Extend virtual memory (64 Mb on 770) using control panel>memory
4th column: time to load website http://europe.nokia.com/A4579470. This is the website on your bookmark OS, OS2008 User Site. Interestingly, Nokia chose this for Chinook only. For Diablo and 770, they used the same bookmark but for a different website.
5th column: time to load Skype and sign in.

OS: 2.2007.51-3, last Chinook before Diablo
4.2008.23-14 1st diablo
4.2008.30-2 2nd diablo, the most recent update
4.2008.7-1 Last 2007He

Results:
1) When SD is involved, Diablo is slower than Chinook and .30-2 is the worst! Similar observation here, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...257#post217257 thread #5
2) Only web surfing, Diablo and Chinook, no measurable difference
3) 770 in general is slightly slower in all aspect, but not much, in fact, quite respectable for a hardware of 2 yrs behind in technology
4) When SD is involved, 2008He is slightly worst than 2007He.
5) Reproduce in this report again, there is NO measurable difference in MMC boot vs IntFlash boot on average use.

Now we do not have to say, I think Diablo is..........you can now read the numbers.

Want to see how your tablet measure against mine? Just go to that website and time yourself, use the link in this post, not the Nokia one, as they may be different. Or simply, just measure how long it take from hitting the Skype button to finish signing in your acct,...if you do, I would greatly appreciate you post here as somekind of bench mark measurement. Dont forget to include tablet/OS/boot mechanism. Even, if it is the same or different number, just post it, the more the merrier, TIA,

Enjoy,
