    The screen lag is kind of driving me nuts in 2.2 and I'm thinking about going back to 2.1 for a while to see if i miss the updates in 2.2 enough to live with the homescreen lag. I've installed LauncherPro and the screen redraws are better, but still happen enough to annoy me. I'm not sure if i...

    Body glove & Slide Concerns

    For anyone using the Body Glove case, I have a question for you. Has your slider become loose? I know the case fits snug and causes the keyboard to be tighter opening, but when removed, is your slider actually loser? I just bought the Body Glove but I'm thinking about returning it. There is...
