This is similar to the Linux kernel limitation, which is 512kbps, or around 60kb/s. Solaris is obviously the same speed as you have noted. Under Mac OS X and Windows XP/Vista with my MacBook Pro I obtained speeds of 130kb/s sustained during non-peak hours on Sprint EVDO using a Novatel EX-720 (ExpressCard) but under Solaris as with Linux I've heard that the Merlin and AirConnect cards are all limited to 512kb/s because of the USB serial driver. This was noted by Sprint themselves and can be found by looking on evdoforums.
