Sounds good. It definitely has some room for usability improvements (zoom controls are especially unintuitive, and you cannot drag the map around without doing a mode switch to go out of "live" mode). And I don't understand why it is so slow, but I never dug into the source code to find out. It's just displaying images that match your current location, and the track on top; what's the big deal? I usually have run it on my ancient Toughbook (P120 or so) and it's terrible, but I have used it on several trips because there was nothing better. I bet it will be about the same on the phone, since an ARM doesn't have as much horsepower as a Pentium, clock-for-clock.
