A slower processor might have a lower battery drain, but again it depends on the processor. An Intel Atom running at 1.6GHz uses a lot less power than an Athlon64 at 1.6GHz!

Anyway, I still wish my Diamond was faster. My Asus A696 PDA with an Intel PXA270 400MHz CPU seems a lot snappier than the Diamond. Even so, I wouldn't give up the Diamond for anything right now. That screen is great :P
