My guess is that the lag is due more to the device than it is to the
software. If you could run jaws on a tablet, it might have the same
problems. The processing power of tablets is increasing all the time. 
But what engineers do when designing a tablet is try to cram as much power
as they can into a tiny space. But they'll sacrifice power for space every
time.
