Yeah, I agree also the addressbook is quite slow, even if it's better,
but still not what I'm expecting from a such list.

Not sure if that's the case (jumping is fast, but I guess that is
definitely another story), but probably for very fast scroll actions
showing "fake content" (until the speed is at a level where the user can
really see the content) might help in this.
