Absolutely agreed on the lag. My fiancee has the Pre and the experience has been going downhill from day 1, worse and worse each day. The lag is absolutely unbearable and one thing jwz forgot to mention is the shit battery life (< 1/2 day). She just uses her work old blackberry now with like a 5 day battery life. It gets the job done. I can't agree on jwz's Android opinion based on some random baseless rumors. I have an Android phone and it's a lot better than Pre (almost no comparison) and to me it's better than the iPhone. With Droid's muscle, it will be the best phone (unfortunately it won't be available for Sprint).

It's a quality control issue for sure. I got a pre on day 1 that just had its touchscreen stop working. Sprint replaced it with no questions asked. The performance on this new one is better in every way: 2 Day battery life (up from 1/2 day) Many cards run at once with much less lag The slider actually feels solid

ironically, lag was one of the reasons i ditched my iphone. bringing up the camera application would take 5 seconds to be able to take a picture, apps would take a long time to start and then end up crashing shortly after. now i'm on an android phone (the t-mobile mytouch) and lag is there too. a phone call comes in and it's slow to respond. the web browser is painfully slow to navigate and clearly chokes on javascript-heavy sites. i think android and webos will get better over time, but more focus needs to be put on responsiveness. even if the phones don't have all the whiz-bang capabilities, if they are quick to respond to the user, they will at least not frustrate them.
