   Since you're literally moving entire screens (pixels) of 
   information, it does tend to be slow. The new Broadway initiative 
   is supposed to have addressed this with a compression protocol, 
   but AFIK it hasn't been widely implemented yet. I believe that 
   only NetManage has come out with a product that incorporates 
   Broadway, and I *definetly* don't recommend their offering.
