When I launch Messages and Calendar (no, not at the same time), the apps take a while to get in working shape. It takes a good while for Contacts to stop lagging as well.
It is just me? I am considering a 2nd go of security-wipe+debrick here...
My messages and calendar take 7 seconds to load. My work computers - i7 - takes 5 seconds to load outlook. 2 seconds won't kill me. Not sure what your PlayBook's deal is. I have no lag
Welcome to Active Sync. Instead of a BES or BIS maintaining a sync with your mail servers, your PlayBook has to go out and sync with each of your mail servers.
I was just noticing this today. When I first set up the accounts (I have 5) things seemed pretty quick. But, now they are slow. I'm doing a test now to see if it's any one specific account that is the cause. 1 is Exchange, 1 is Gmail, one is Facebook, and the other two are POP accounts.
Mine all launch in 10 seconds or less with 5 email accounts, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn configured. My email accounts are 2 Exchange accounts, 1 Gmail account and 2 IMAP accounts.
