The processor is the same as some other high-end devices such as the Thunderbolt and the HTC Incredible 2 / Trophy 7. It should be fast, but hard to tell when comparing across different OSes.
What may hold the browser back speed-wise more than anything is having to go through BIS.
As of yesterday, there is speculation that that the Bold Touch will ship with OS 7. Of course I don't think that has been confirmed but it would nice if it did. For now its just a waiting game.

lets put it in layman's terms. its basically a slightly better version of OS6 but with double the processing power and more RAM. so if your bold 9650 9700 series seems to have a snappy OS, just imagine doubling the power, yes its going to be super fast.

Don't forget the addition of Liquid Graphics and html browsing. I am guessing this BB will blow off some doors and redefine the concept of what a BB is capable of.
