Aaron,
Sorry that I was not more precise, but I was accurate.
It is true that wireless is closer to the edge. But, 5Mbps is about all you can rely upon from 10baseT, and I have a *lot* going on in my network so I do have dropouts even with a wired setup. Yes, when trying with wireless, I looked for information about optimizing buffer usage, as that seemed an obvious area of vulnerability.
It seems silly to even discuss this kind of problem in a world where 100Mbps devices have been dirt cheap for some time. Heck, my PowerMac G4 that I bought in 2000 has Gigabit Ethernet: so does my Powerbook from 2002. Not having it in the SB1 was a real oversight.

In the interest of accuracy it should be noted that raw pcm at 1.4mbps is
not really all that close to the usable bandwidth for a 10baseT connection.
It may, however, be argued that it's close to the usable bandwidth on the
much more tenuous 802.11b connection--particularly when one considers the
fact that with wireless you share bandwidth with other wireless devices and
are prone to dropouts due to interference problems compounded by the sb1's
small (2mb) buffer.
