Anyway, in the zaurus it's like 3 seconds to connect, and I don't think that it can be done better than that.
P.S.: I had the impression that the batteries lasted more than 2h with wifi... I'll have to do some tests. |
Nice work!!!
I agree, the connection is way too slow, even on my home network (where I am about 2 meters from my AP). And even 3 seconds extra delay would be irritating when just browsing.
If you actually manage to close connection and throttle CPU, perhaps a better solution would be to close connection and power down CPU after e.g. 10 seconds of network inactivity (i.e., you actually found an article you are going to read, instead of just following links).
