I was excited to maybe get the HTC HERO on Sprint Oct. 11 bit now not sure?
Android is a Java-variant, and Java is an interpreted language for the most part. It's not a truly compiled bytecode set of binaries like Sybian or Microsoft CE, and it has lots of lag issues as the pseudo-JVMs struggle to handle your UI requests. Context-switching is laughably bad. Android is nice, but unless they start putting call functions into C++ sections, this will never be a great phone platform.
Is this true ?? I don`t want an iPhone so should I believe Android is a sub-optimal OS ? Or is the above statement just a scare tactic ?
