In a FAQ section on the PlayStation Blog, Sony come close to actually putting a number on the thing, stating “The PlayStation Move has similar sensing latency as the DUALSHOCK 3 controller – for many PlayStation Move games, this is about 22ms”.

Of course, Sony then points out “Modern HDTVs unfortunately have much more latency, usually on the order of 60-160ms”, so yes, in short, the Move isn’t – at least according to Sony’s own internal testing – very laggy at all. Good to hear!
