> Is anyone else seeing as much weirdness with GPU accel as I am? I do see troubles too with GPU, especially this one: "ICS WebView blinks when Hardware Acceleration is used" http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=25722 , very annoying as no HW acceleration = no HTML5 video tag working.
Seems you mentionned the Webview blink is fixed in 4.1.1, but the bug report looks it's not, could you confirm ?
