The server is never done sending information, it's constantly streamed 
for the entire connection. The turning point in the official client 
appears to be when the clothing assets have finished downloading and the 
appearance is sent back to the server. There's nothing fundamentally 
stopping you from moving around and doing things before that, but SL is 
less enjoyable if you can't see your avatar.
