Does anyone know if ddr2 ram is a lot better than the regular ram they have been using on phones... 512 seems to be so little for todays standard... I had hard time with pre 256, now 512 in my evo is kinda getting in my nerves as well... Using Browser to get videos or games kills the speed of the phone cause of FLASH RAM consumption
