I watching Mary Zoe off our website site at 220KB bitstream rate for a very smooth video. Downloaded at the same time 9.5MB zip file in under 2-1/2 minutes at a 66KB/sec transfer rate. In other words FAST like the T1 at the office.
Only bad thing is Austin is one of only a few airports that have wireless Internet installed but in another year it will be common in all airports and good hotels.

Thanks Laurence for buying the card so we could try it out.
