PS... yes speeds are slow, and faster would be nice. But if this is all I can do while travelling, it's better than nothing. Not sure if those "speed test" web sites work on Safari, but I'm thinking I'll give that a try and see what it says.

Addon: Ok, so I ran Speed Test at bandwidthplace.com. I chose other, then Wireless G3 as my connection type, and ran the test.

Personal test results

Speed

425.3 kilobits per second
Communications 425.3 kilobits per second
Storage 51.9 kilobytes per second
1MB file download 19.7 seconds
Subjective rating Not bad

Not sure how this really stacks up, but it seems a touch faster today since moving my laptop and cell away from my computer desk. I've had the occasional dropped call while at that desk, and I wonder if my Logitech Dinovo bluetooth dongle or other computer equipment might not be a cause of signal issues. But in any event, that's what I come up with.
