Unfortunately, I have to agree. I was very pumped about being able to
use VoIP over WiFi on the PPC-6700 (which has a 416 MHz cpu), but the
phone's processor just didn't seem to be able to keep up with the RTP
stream. It was really unusable; I ended up having to cancel the
service and return the device, which was a real shame, because the
phone and the EV-DO data service worked quite well in general
otherwise.
