Is the video playback slow on netflix? On my droid x2 the netflix app is excruciatingly sluggish but once i get into video streaming it works great. I've read elsewhere that in general the mobile netflix app is very sluggish for navigation, but the video playback works well.

oh no, playback is fine. it's just navigating through the queue that's slow as crap. so is scrolling through amazon appstore or pretty much anything with lots of pictures that i've come across so far. i wonder how much the high res is killing the performance here.

That is certainly my experience on a Nook Color with CM7, the app interface is painful to use, but actually watching something is fine.

flash plays fine. i sideloaded it and tried it with dolphin.

got moon reader on it after pulling it off my phone (so i'm pretty happy there). next i'll try firefox. it still quite a bit of lag, especially when scrolling the bookshelf in moon. it may be a driver issue as one person pointed out in xda a while back.
