Phil hardly noticed in the lab when I was downloading 1.5GB powerpc images on 6 macs at a time from a server on the same subnet: those UDP packets kept getting through! I have also witnessed the Palm Pilot client driving a midi device over its IR into a mobile phone and through a ISP!! (although as Phil said, I guess he never intended it to be used that way!)
