I will keep it on for some more time, but I must say that the effect was immediate. This is what I did try immediately and already felt a difference: 1) expand panel (faster) 2) get task list (faster) 3) switch applications from task list (faster) 4) switch applications from panel left and right buttons (faster) 5) suspend (faster) 6) resume (faster) Of course I have no idea on the effects of power saving or how much of these faster things don't actually suffer from some psychological effect :) Rui _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
