One more thing while everyone's talking about memory, i hope everyone here knows that these things work just like a pc in regards to memory...

here's an example in theory
say we have two moguls side by side and for the sake of this argument
lets say one of them has 128mb of ram just like the tilt and they're running the same programs, lets say one has 10mb of free memory and the other has 74mb...and lets say you open up PIE to go to a web page....which one is faster? Actually they should be the exact same speed UNLESS the page you go to in PIE or the program you use needs more than 10mb of free memory otherwise it'll be the same. You see the amount of free memory does not make a difference unless you use all of it or a program needs all of it for a moment in time, in that case you will notice a SEVERE slow down.

This is just like some people thinking that upgrading your pc from 1gb of memory to 2gb will make a difference for web browsing or basic office apps, it only makes a difference if the programs your using exceed the alloted free memory available.....
