If you look at some of the videos online (
http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=openmoko&num=10&so=1&start=0), you'll
see that the UI is getting more responsive than it was.  It looks to me (as
a fan, not as a developer) that the UI responsiveness has greatly improved
with the 2007.2 updates.

With the GTA02's better hardware, I expect it to get to the near instant
response for most functions.  Although keep in mind, this is an open
platform that anyone and develop on, so don't expect all developers to write
the most optimized code.
