Re: iPhone as a remote

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
 
How does the iPhone handle a list with thousands of entries (i.e. if 
you access the "Tracks" category in the "Music" part)? Does it still 
scroll smoothly? Are the entries displayed instantly (or do they need 
their time to display like in the demo videos by Apple)?

 
With around 100 tracks, it takes less than 1 second to load the list, and scrolling is smooth as always. Same goes for around 250 tracks, which does take a few seconds to load. 400 tracks took around 10-20 seconds to load, and scrolls smoothly.

However, I just tried loading my entire iTunes track list (4000+ tracks) with the iPhone remote, and it made mobileSafari become unresponsive, where I could tap the safari control buttons, but it would take forever to respond; even pressing the home button to get out of mobileSafari took about 10-20 seconds to respond.
