looks like this is a solid fail, 2 seconds+ for click response when adding a contact (with NO other applications open) = this device is FAR too sluggish

WOW! I’m using a 3Gs and the pre’s speed is laughable it borders unacceptable! I respect the pre though it’s putting up a decent fight.

My Pre is not that slow at all.

Look at my video on my page.

the 3gs should be faster, it’s OS has has several more years to mature and it has a faster processor than the pre. The pre’s OS is 2.5 months old, it’ll get faster.

The iPhone 3GS has the exact same processor as PALM PRE.

instead of clicking the middle button u should have just slid ur finger up to open the apps faster. idk though, u should try it when it really loads instead of it already pre-loaded in the backround.

i have a pre too, yay pre!

This is true. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I beleive good sir that the Palm Pre’s 600mhz proc is underclocked to 500mhz while the iPhone 3gs runs at 600mhz.

Also don’t forget using the Pre can be extremely quick since you can keep the applications open so you only have to get back to the app you want in about 2 seconds
there you go
