Is there any way to import a pre-existing private key?
Updated, does seem to be noticeably faster. Thank you for your work.
I'm proud to announce version 2.41 of Bitcoin Wallet.
The changes are mostly under the hood, but some of them are massive:
The bloom filter feature depends on seeing at least one bitcoin-qt/bitcoind 0.8.0 (protocol version 70000+) to download blocks from. As of today, the chance for this is roughly 50% and will increase as the new version spreads. If you want to help, update your bitcoin-qt now.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to Bitcoin Wallet and bitcoinj. Mike Hearn and Matt Corallo earn extra hugs for making bloom filters a reality!
The changes are mostly under the hood, but some of them are massive:
- Seriously reduced bandwidth and CPU usage due to usage of bloom filters on peer connections
- Faster connection setup to peers
- Ability to spend your own change instantly, without waiting for confirmation
- No need to manually disconnect any more for any of the preferences
- Preference for showing the connectivity indicator
- Shortcut to request coins by long tapping on QR code
- Enhanced Peer monitor to show more info about peers, e.g. hostname
- Fallback for fetching exchange rates (bitcoincharts first, then blockchain)
- Lots of small improvements and bugfixes
- Based on bitcoinj 0.7
