mrgadget.com.au — The accolade of “Best of CES 2009″ that the Palm Pre received wasn’t just because it looked good - this baby is also seriously jam-packed with some groovy functionality. The foundation of the exciting new Palm is built on the zippy OMAP3430 processor and Palm’s new webOS. With these as building blocks, it seems Palm has picked up where Apple left

Calm down dude, there's no need to throw a tantrum.. I was replying to somebody. I don't have an iPhone as I stated. I like being able to run a bunch of apps at the same time. Start crying about that statement now.

CamperBob: Exactly. A lot of the perceived slowness in other handsets is just as present in the iPhone, but it is covered up by the shiny UI. In fact, the transitions cause things to load slightly slower than they otherwise would, with the CPU spending time feeding the GPU with the OpenGL structures it needs to render. It's a very slight difference, but a difference it is.Psychologically, however, the effect is the opposite. The iPhone seems *faster* than it is by *slowing* things down. Very paradoxical, but in reality perceived speed is far more important than actual speed.Once you boil it all down, the iPhone does it correctly to appear fast and to be the least frustrating to the majority of people.

It has crossed my mind that they're there just to cover up the phones inability to switch functions quickly enough without the animations.
