Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE my EVO!!!!!!
The only way you can get it from me is to pry it out of my hand when i am dead!!!!!!

Just an iteresting artical and just think, We like our EVO's now at the current frame rate, it will only get better once it is fixed.

Ok so if movie speeds are played at 27fps explain to me why I should care about this? I'm not a gamer at all and the phone is fast in everything I do so... what am I missing?

I think it is not limited to only games and video but also how fast the interface does its transitions..thats why some ppl were saying how sense ui is slower on android over winmo..

If it is, I dont notice. So what does this accomplish? uFck an Engadget, they make sure they point out all the negatives of the phone. I'm pretty sure you will never here any stories pointing out how some Evo owners have there phone on for 2 days straight with normal use using the overclocking widget. Whats is this hurting? Would the normal person even notice? Be serious.

Its true, I notice the lag when flipping screens and when In the programs menu. Still love it though

"It seems that the device is "locked in" at 30 frames per second both in 2D (Canvas) and 3D (openGL) modes, while anecdotally, a phone like the Hero hits 54fps on average and has "smoother scrolling" in the menus." - Engadget

This obviously have no affect on this device. If you were a Hero owner or played with one does the Evo feel any way shape or form worst then the Hero ( as far as scrolling moving the apps or anything for that matter )?
