Default Is it true?

On a few "hands on" videos on youtube the interface seemed to respond very slow with a lag/delay when accessing new menus through TouchFLO.

For those who have it, does the menu respond instantly or does the lag really exist? Honest opinions rather than biased ones would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Take a look at www.coolsmartphone.com ,
there are a lot of live videos. The latest one "Weekend special" is with the final firmware.

I only have seen one video of it being laggy. By Dave of Mobility Today. He cross posted it several in several forums across multiple sites.

But perhaps his has a specific issue? Even taking seconds to turn on? That doesn't sound normal at all, and its nothing like many of the preview videos posted at www.coolsmartphone.com.

I'm not sure which is more representative of actual results, but I'd think you'd hear more people complain about the lagginess if it were pervasive. And so far, all the laggy posts trace back to Dave's videos...

The lack of NA support will keep me from this in any case.

Guys.. I am concluding my lagginess is probably due to the issue with the bands the phone works on. I can tell you this that the phone call quality completely sucks! I dont think its the unit at all I think anyone in the USA who uses this device will experience the same crappy laggy feeling.

that's easy to verify:

see if it's still laggy for you with radio switched off or SIM card removed.

have a look for the "Diamond tweaks" thread. Apply the reg tweaks and they'll make TouchFlo sooo much faster, and the device (and of course your other apps) will simply fly!
Telstra HTC Touch Diamond (DIAM 130) with unsigned Hard SPL OliNex (here) Shine On 2.4 Light ROM with dynamic pagepool by panosha (here) and I use 1.00.25.08 radio (here). This radio gives the best signal strength of all radios currently available when using Telstra's Next G network in regional areas - signal strength is on a par with phones from LG and Samsung that Telstra give the "regional tick".
