Is it the way it plays videos? or overall general perfomance. Thanks in advance.

the ati d3d driver definitely helps with d3d graphics, but 2d performance is bad and most games are programmed with OpenGL (er whatever the mobile version is.)

I think once microsoft gets the app store off the ground, developers will have more incentive to program games for wm, and d3d will be used more. Hell, Direct3D is the dominant graphics on PC right now. Every game I get is D3D. The last game I got that was openGL was either Prey or quake4. Don't know if that means anything for mobile, but it's definitely not something to ignore.
