I'd argue that there isn't any significant performance advantage when using a
dual core CPU vs the same clock speed single core CPU. Not in day to day usage
anyway, perhaps in hard benchmark applications there may be :)
On a sidenote, I think the average Joe consumer has been a bit hoodwinked
I know for me and quite a few of my Blackberry users, battery life is more
important than dual core. If I wanted to play Angry Birds, I have a Touch for
that. Don't need that junk on my Blackberry.
