Something like 5-8 seconds with lossy MP3s for an SB1. Tough if you
don't have perfect reception. And worse if running lossless.

The SB1 uses 802.11b, which is roughly 11Mb/s. So when it tries to fill
the buffer, it's slow. And the buffer is 8MB.

The SB2/3 is a better box for this. It's 802.11g, roughly 5 times
faster. The buffer is 5 times bigger (40MB). 

Both of those factors make it more fault tolerant.

That being said, we don't know the problem is wireless health. Try an
experiment. Wire it up to ethernet and see if the problem goes away. If
not, that's not it.
