Re: Graphics Performance issues?

The Omnia uses a Marvell processor, so none of the Qtv/Qualcomm issues come into play. The d3dm drivers from the Omnia are much better than the ones HTC ships their devices with, but not many programs use d3d and there will be no effect on 2d performance at all. Also, the d3d drivers are a software rendering approach, whereas proper Qtv support would utilize the graphics hardware on the Qualcomm chip.

In short, there's not much you can do about it other than wait for a new device. Using WMP/HTC Album along with proper video encoding will make video watchable though. I say screw SnapDragon. Bring me Tegra.
