as you can tell lots of folks here are recommending custom ROMS which can definitely be speedy. You say you are on Verizon I believe which has a stock rom with 6.5. Either you have installed something or have some software causing an issue , or you have a defective unit. The TP2 is every bit as good or better than a 6 yr old IPAQ .You dfinitely need to try the hard reset ( or clear storage option) and then see how it reacts. While you may experience a faster experience with a custom rom, you still should be fine with the stock rom. There definitely is unneeded software on the stock roms but thaat being said, you still should be as responsive as an old PDA with lesser technical specs. There are some custom roms that are also pretty much a bare bones rom with all the unnecessary software removed from the OEM packages and this may be exactly what you are looking for . Either way, you should be able to keep up with or surpass your old IPAQ experience . I know I gave up my IPAQ long ago and never looked back. good luck
