I've noticed laggy scrolling in menus even without graphical
applications running.
400MHz is not going to set the world on fire but is certainly not
sluggish and should be adequate given the task at hand. What is the deal
with Glamo? Do we have - or will we ever have - meaningful graphics
acceleration for the Freerunner, given that this Glamo appears to be
handicapped by a bus that is not only slow to start with, but also shared?
