the timeouts in between can be routers that discard the package without a reply.
I also have problems with some of the slimdevices.com servers. I haven't analyed it in depth, but for me the skins.slimdevices.com server seems to close http connections. As it looks like there is also at least one loadbalancer there can be many reasons. One guess i have is a unclean connection close after the last image. i get the page rendered. But around one minute later the page load indication stops. The onload event is triggered only after a timeout. Maybe an aggressive connection close/recycle on the loadbalancer? Or the LB running in its connection limit? for what it is worth, here is a trace.
