Yes. And the Swan firmware is about that much faster, with a lot of added
things as well, and I can still essentially use all my NQC code and tricks.
BrickOS is much faster, etc. I guess my point was that I hope the NXT is faster
out-of-the-box (i.e.- before we all start attacking it with screwdrivers,
soldering guns, and wholesale firmware replacement) and with the LEGO standard
operating system. That way I can start playing right away.

Yes, but I don't want to wait for a port of Lejos (or even NQC, which I'm
much more at home with). Here's wishing that LEGO is on top of this at the
release date. I *know* we'll add to the product, I'm just hoping for as high an
inital standard as possible.
