I won't argue that. However, the following may be of interest to current
Cingular EDGE - Sony Ericsson GC82 users:

As I understand it, the Data Connect product and drivers, previously offered
with the Sony-Ericsson GC82 EDGE PC card were apparently not tuned for
optimal throughput. Cingular has released a version of CCM (Cingular
Connection Manager) that includes optimized settings and drivers for the
GC82. It is available as a free download at Cingular's website. See the link
at:
http://www.cingular.com/business/connection_manager

Current GC82 - Data Connect users should also read and follow the guidance
at the following link:

http://www.cingular.com/download/Data_Connect_Uninstall_Instructions_8_16_04_V2.pdf

I honestly don't know what treatment (if any) was applied to RWIN settings
in the CCM update.

Your test failed: Your post showed up here, instead of a test newsgroup.
Your newsreader appears to be posting to the wrong group.

In the future please use a test newsgroup (e.g., alt.test, comp.test,
microsoft.public.test, misc.test, rec.test, regional test newsgroup, test
newsgroup set up by your ISP) -- that's what they are there for. Thanks for
your consideration.
