Hi Mike,
I also want to hear Pete's definition of constrained network clients.
In TCG work on mobile devices, we are careful to accomodate very low-end
"feature phones" (under $100 street price) that dominate the emerging
countries
markets. These devices definitely do *not* have 8GB, high-speed CPUs, or
large batteries.
Radio usage controls battery life. Acting as a pull and forward agent for
large
files is a seriously poor idea for very low-end phones.
Cheers,
- Ira
