Oh, crap - I was referring to the iPhone, not Snow Leopard. My bad!

I'll tell ya, I'm not impressed with Snow Leopard despite some of its nice new stuff. It has too many niggling issues and frankly I get beachballs that sit for 10-40 seconds a lot! In contrast, I am so impressed with the RTM of Win7 that I can't wait to find me a slim little laptop that supports 4-6GB and a touchscreen. I'll be relinquishing my MBP to the backup position.

I'm gonna have to try a fresh install and see if that helps anything.

I haven't had many beachballs, but I dont like the notes being added to my mail inbox. How can I get rid of them w/o deleting them?

Go to Mail Preferences to make sure the box is not checked.

Weren't there always notes in mail since they added the syncing iphone notes or whatever?

Applejack isn't compatible with SL yet either. They recommend uninstalling it before updating to SL, but if you didn't uninstall it first, like me, you can do it afterwards.

If you try to run or uninstall Applejack after updating to SL, it won't work.
Here's the directions for uninstalling it;

Go to the Applejack project page and download and install the new version. After re-installing it, you'll be able to uninstall it by running this script in Terminal;

sudo /var/root/Library/Scripts/applejack.sh uninstall

You can also uninstall it by rebooting in single user mode and entering the command; applejack uninstall

A Jaadu VNC update was just released which fixes SL SSH compatibility.

I have been getting constant freezing that I never used to get before. I'm considering downgrading back to Leopard.

What's freezing? The only problem I've had is firefox will give me the beach ball when I try to upload something and it only happens 1 out of 5 times. I just force quit and launch. It's somewhat expected since firefox hasn't been updated to support 10.6 yet.
What exactly is freezing for you?
