Orb and 6700 Speeds.

I am a little confused on this one. On my 6600 I was geting a constant 112kbs for device speed. On my 6700 I never really break 100kbs when I run a sped test on it.
It usually averages around 60kbs. I am in an ev-do are and get 600kbs when running a regular speed test. What speeds are other people getting with orb on there device? I know you can manually set it but I shouldnt have to.

That above answer gives some interesting results
I just gave the second solution a try and got 2.4MB!!!

*from above

"Update for fast phones! (typically EVDO in the US)

The current speed detection may not be accurate for phones with very fast internet connection (200k and above) because the default payload is only 50k. As of today you can add a new parameter in your Orb url to increase this payload and make the measure more accurate, like this: http://my.orb.com/orb/?spload=300 (this uses 300k) "

(*normal speed test gives me ~400 k)

I wonder how dynamic the streaming intervals are.
It'd be interesting to know at what resolution is being outputted at varying connection speeds
