The radio used on the telosb is limited to total byte count of 128 bytes.

The length field in an Active Message message is 8 bits so is limited to 256
bytes.

There are other limitations in the system due to available memory and other
things but I haven't quantified them.

TinyOS uses a static allocation scheme for most things.  Dynamic allocation
is available but isn't used as much because it opens
the door to wild pointers and such.

The best thing to do is to try out what you need and see if it works.
