I have a 9930 from verizon with the latest os. I have a total of about 5 simple apps installed.
Does anyone else feel like the 9900/9930 is not as snappy as you had expected. With this processor, I was expecting it to be a bit quicker. Example, google maps takes a few seconds for searches and map loading compared to an old android galaxy s.
I do a battery pull every morning when I wake up and start the day.
Also, other apps like telenav and facebook are a little slow too. Apps like browser aren't that much faster than my 9700. Yes faster, but not extremely faster.
wow... I did my first batt pull on my 9900 last week, after 3 months. Still on the shipped OS cause I am a mac user so can't update non carrier OS. Batt pulls everyday is OCD my friend.

Do you keep your mac on for 3 months at a time?
If so, that's something worse than OCD. It's like driving a Ferrari on low grade gasoline!
I swap batteries pretty much twice a day and my Bold is flying.
With a 1.2Ghz processor, I was expecting almost instantaneous response when clicking on message, calendar, facebook, google maps, standard app or not....
The delay is not long, perhaps 1/2-1 second. Considering how simple the graphics are on this phone and how simple some of these apps are, like message or calendar, I don't see why it wouldn't be instantaneously fast. Compared to other operating systems like the iphone where it's able to render full on graphics in a racing game and the accelerorometer enabled to activate the turning in these games, opening message applications or google maps should be a walk in the park...
compared to my 9700, opening of the messages folder, text messages, calendar doesn't seem that much faster. Google maps, updating apps, browser seems to be a little faster, but then again, not by much...

It kinda does suck we Mac users don't have full access to the phone, huh? I uninstalled BB Maps and cannot get it re-installed on my 9930. I know it sucks but I would like it back . Oh well. I still like Mac/BB combo though along w the PB of course.
