- Sure, the 2G has fineprint¬ and photograde¬ Advanced features which
- require more processing time. Try turning them off, speed vs quality -
- which is worth more to you? Also, does your NTX have a HD attatched (ours
- does) Bitmap font xfer time on a LW w/ HD is nearly zero, while without the
- HD, the data has to be xfer at appletalks (unless your G is on ethernet)
- snail like speed of 230kpbs.
