I'm seeing a real improvement, even when turning it on in a different location from the last usage.
Maybe just placebo effect, but appears that way to me.

Yes, I agree. It used to be VERY slow, but now fairly useable.

I haven't noticed that (but I DID think I had noticed that with PR1.2!).

Seems to be faster here too...had been using supl.google.com prior to this, didn't realize the update changed it back to nokia, that's a testament to it being much faster.
