Sure, you could argue that an intelligence purely based on text, disconnected from the physical world, could be intelligent, but it would have a very hard time reasoning about interaction of entities in the physicial world. It would be unable to understand humans in many aspects: I wouldn't call that generally intelligent.
Given sufficient bandwidth, why would it have a hard time reasoning about interaction of entities? You could describe vision down to the pixel, hearing down to the pitch and decibel, touch down to the sensation, etc. and the system could internally convert it to exactly what a human feels. You could explain to it all the known theories of psychology and give it the personal interactions of billions of people. Sure, that's a huge amount of bandwidth, but it proves that your statement is inaccurate.
