Firmware 4.3 works slower that 4.2 ?

Has anyone bee able to test the Pearl 8100 with the 4.3.1.4 firmware yet ? I got the firmware (nice but no killer features) and installed it on a test device but it seems a little slow when opening some applications (eg the media player). I was able to confirm that on a second device while a 8120 (Firmware 4.3.0.39) works fine.

I really was waiting for the 4.3 to install it on my private 8100 but now I´m not sure about that....

Looks as if RIM takes our bug reports seriously. I like that. (Reminds me of Kubuntu.)

Re: Firmware 4.3 works slower that 4.2 ?

The firmware works fine - the funny thing is that the slowdown that I was concerned about seems to have disappeard after a hard reset....

I can take some more screenshots of the 8100 4.3 firmware if anyone´s interested

Is there any way that you can get your hands on a changelog?
