At the risk of sounding like an Apple fan boy: that delay you're experiencing is nearly a non-issue on iOS devices. I know what you're talking about: that 50ms or so between when (say) you start to drag your finger and when the UI starts to scroll. I spent a year on Android and I'm sorry to say that problem is mostly endemic to that platform. I switched back to iOS - in part - because of that sluggish touch response. Another platform that doesn't seem to have that problem: Windows Phone. I'm not saying that iOS doesn't have a delayed touch response, I'm just saying that Android is bad at it.
