I've heard that it's pretty slow, but at times (and very much depending on the server hardward) SlimServer's web server response is pretty sluggish. You'd have to directly compare the 770 to the web interface performance at a computer to really tell the difference.
I've seen the difference that client hardware can make in web page rendering, and it's significant. If the Nokia 770 is a dog in its browser performance, it would pretty much negate its usefulness as a remote. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20910 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
