Found mine becoming really laggy and quite annoying to use recently. Might be all that early Cupcake fiddling! Found that a good way to clear the cobwebs is just to restore the whole device to factory settings. Also good if returning it for any reason and you need to remove all traces of nefarious activity!

Here goes:

  1. Turn off the G1
  2. Press Home Key and End key at the same time for abuot 15 seconds, until you see a triangle with an exclamation point with a picture of the G1.
  3. Slide out the QWERTY keyboard and press Alt and W at the same time.
  4. That’s it! All done!

To do a soft reset, just press the Home and Back buttons when you see the triangle with an exclamation point and a picture of the G1 on the screen.

Thanks, Android Central!
