[Q] GFX Performance...

All I can say is, try it! What do you have to lose? It runs off the SD, you don't need HSPL... it doesn't even touch WinMo.

Graphics performance isn't stellar - the hardware is old... Even with proper drivers (which ours may not be 'proper' yet...) our hardware doesn't support OpenGLES2.0 for example...

So no matter how much work is put into the driver side of things, the hardware is going to severely limit any chance of the device being useful for gaming.

true, but bypass's my point entirely, sans the driverpacks out their, my WM performance for GFX is near the same level as my HTC Titan... ergo the question...

What is stopping you from trying it?

You're making a mountain out of a molehill IMHO.

GFX performance sucks, no matter how you slice it - this phone just wasn't built for it. Devs have done their best to eek out performance, and there's probably a little bit more room for improvement - but there's only so far you can go with limited hardware.

not really, just asking for other experienced peoples... experiences... if you dont have experience, no need for you to post, simple as that, but if i was at my PERSONAL pc to be able to do this kind of testing I would, you ASS U ME to much...

Wow.

I guess I assume that you can handle dropping some files onto your SD card. Perhaps I do assume too much.

I do have experience, but your question is kinda silly. So expect silly answers, and try not to be a dick. Enjoy!

and again, its a valid question, just because you think its silly doesnt make it so, troll elseware
