Default Just me or is app world completely useless?
After about 5 minutes of using it my phone slows to a crawl, the pictures on the left hardly ever load. Today was the first time I just decided to browse instead of just going to download one app and close it.

Agreed. I was unimpressed with the whole implementation of the thing.

Its not just you they spent a little too much time concerned with graphics when its only to be used on a mobile phone. Only advice I have is open it and give it a few minutes then look once all the pictures have rendered its at least a little quicker

Agreed... combine that with PayPal only payment method and it's a bom.

Completely useless given the available alternatives. I do most of my app shopping through Mobihand - I can use a desktop browser, no need for PayPal, and their system for recording what apps you've purchased actually remembers what apps I've purchased.

Default App World doesn't work with Aerize Card Loader
App World forces the app into you device without any options as to where you want the program loaded.

Crackberry and Mobihand downloads ask if you want it loaded on your card or on the devices memory.

I'm glad for this thread. I was wondering if it was something I could do away with, without messing up my phone. Seems more like nothing but commercials. Like others, I can buy what I want on my own, I hate things being pushed at me to buy.

It seems they spent just as little time on that as they did the storm. I hope this trend doesn't continue.......
