I think Bob's point was that the Treo's meager CPU (compared to a
modern laptop), odd NVRAM architecture, and so forth just aren't
powerful enough to handle data coming in at 11mbps or more...a
suspicion I share. Downloading a big (e.g., 6MB) attachment is likely
going to require saving it directly to the SD card, which is yet
another bandwidth bottleneck. It's the old "drinking from the
firehose" analogy, I believe.
