I don't know if anyone else who already has Froyo on their Epic, but I know when I've tried to watch flash videos from sites such as cnet.com the video is sorta of okay but the audio plays in slow-motion. The only work around I have found is using the skyfire browser but it condenses the video, which makes it harder to see. I wonder if EC05 will improve upon this or if its just a limitation due to the 1Ghz hummingbird processor. Any ideas?
 
Don't know if it's the same issue, but the Sirius XM web player based on flash (not the app) has very slow audio as well. Kind of hope it's the same issue (and not an issue specific to sirius xm) because it gives it a better chance of getting fixed. The recently released Flash 10.2 didn't fix it.

I don't believe this really has anything to do with the processor and more to do with your connection at that time. Flash Player is yes a bit laggy but shouldn't be that bad. When watching Flash, I would suggest either 4g or WiFi for best results.. 3g just isn't pushing things fast enough in my opinion.

I tried it on wifi and i still have the same problem... i am running EC05 now too.
 
I also think it's mostly connection related. When I'm at home during peak hours I get a lot of buffering and lag. After 10 pm or so it's much smoother. This is on wifi.....
