in my experience, the connection speed that your pc recognizes means nothing. you can actually change this speed in the modem properties of your usb wmodem found in network devices.

if you would like to see your actual data transfer speed you should go into the windows directory in your ppc - make sure that you have selected to show all files - and run a program called fieldtrial. if you change the tab in the upper left from 1X to HDR you will find that the 9th field down is called requested data rate. this i believe is the actual transfer speed that you are experiencing.

go ahead and give it a shot - you will find that just rotating or moving your pda a few inches can change this value quite significantly. crazy.
