The Slowening of Faster Devices
My Sharp HDTV suffers from this greatly.
It’s miserable waiting several seconds per channel while I try to hit “channel up” from a low number to a high number to catch a show that’s about to start.
It’s also completely horrible to turn on the TV to a very loud station and have to wait several seconds before I can turn the volume down.
The firmware is upgradable, so I hope that Sharp somehow magically hears my plea for an upgraded experience.
