But this isn't a MSX related problem, all kinds of computer connected
through standard telephone lines have this problem. What can we do?
Develop a new wireless technology? That could be possible, but I don't
have financial resources. :-(((

But htz-files are compressed! The idea is very good: to compress the html
data do achieve the fastest transfer, and to not use much complex
algorithm techniques, to not overload Z80. In this way, FudeBrowser will
be very faster than any other browsers running over Pentium and above.

Ok. Meanwhile, Fudebrowser will be improved, perhaps with a MSX2 version.

So, your next task is, after finishing stack TCP/IP, "i" kernel will run
it, right?
