Gingerbread update totally slowed my phone down

I currently have the Droid 2 Global and last week, it automatically did the update to 2.3.3 Gingerbread.  Ever since then, my phone has become SO FREAKING SLOW!!!!!  :smileymad:  It's unbearable!  It takes forever just to even open my text messages and even longer to get my camera to open, which has caused me to miss out on quite a few pictures.  There is also a huge lag in sending texts now.  It takes about 2-3 seconds for my text to show up on the screen after I hit send and there is also a couple of seconds of lag for letters to show up on the sreen after I have typed them.  Before the update, my phone ran great and everything was always instantaneous, but it's like Gingerbread has totally bogged it down.  I haven't installed any new apps since well before the update, so I know that's not the problem.  My husband has the Droid 3 and his is running 2.3.4 and it works great, but of course it's much newer and faster than my phone.  I still have my upgrade discount available on my line, which I was going to wait a little while to use, but this is forcing me to use it now and I'm going to order an iPhone next week.  

 

I hate this.  I loved my phone before this update!  Has this happened to anyone else with a Droid 2????
