OK, I did this scientifically and took precise measurements.  Most of my
calendar events open in 1 - 2 seconds.  Events that have repeats or alarm
take longer to open, 3 - 4 seconds.  One specific problematic one (repeats
weekdays + alarm) took between 9 - 12 seconds to open.  (Note that by "open"
I mean open the dialogu box and fully populate all the fields so you can
edit them.  All my events *start* to open instantly, but it can take up to
12 seconds for all the data in the fields to appear.)  

Solution:  I had two events that were really slow-to-open.  I deleted them
and re-created them from scratch on the Pre.  Now they open in 1 - 2
seconds.  I noticed the problematic ones are all carry-overs from my old
Treo 700p running DateBk6.  DateBk6 always inserted embedded/hidden codes in
the notes section of calendar events.  Maybe that's what was hosing some of
my events.

Nope, that's not normal.  Not even close to that much time.  Calendar isn't
as fast as it should be, but it's much faster with 1.3.5.1 than previously.
10 seconds to open a calendar entry is a problem.  On mine it takes a split
second.

Cheers,
Don

Have you guys noticed this? 

When I open an event from the calendar, it sometimes takes about 10 seconds
or more for the event details to fully load. And sometimes when I go to
delete an event, when I hit the delete button, the calendar hangs/freezes
right there at the drop down menu, and won't recover. I have to swipe away
the app and start over. Today I realized this was happening when I hit the
delete button too quickly, BEFORE the event details have fully loaded. If I
wait patiently and then hit delete, it doesn't freeze up.
