The only slowness I have found is at the very start - when connections are being established. Indeed it has taken more than 5 minutes to start the PVM List running. However when it finally makes its connections then radio downloads as fast as ever. And now that I've switched off the option to convert the downloaded file to MP3 it is as fast as it always has been.
I steer clear of over-loaded wifi connections though - too many drop-outs / lost packets / etc. These progs then have to be re-downloaded manually - which is a pain. The wifi services at McDonald's the are best (for me)!!!! However I have noticed that t.v. is painfully slow - I guess due to the huge files for the default of HD. I always forget to ask for the non-HD files. But isn't it great that we can still download the Beeb's programmes for unsupported mobile devices? All thanks to the development team. You know who you are!!! CJB.
