For all those who are referring to the g-appli stats a word from me.
The report is dated 2001/03/26 which is neary a year old now and it was the
time
when iAppli was just out and people thought of it as "games" and no more.
A year since then, serious wireless developers/analysts would have noticed
people using iAppli's not only for gaming but other applications
like dictionaries, pop mail retrievers, browsers, etc.

> I think most of the appli's people are downloading are tools like clocks,
and standalone games (Samurai Romanesque notwithstanding, there aren't that
many networked games). Look at the g-appli stats as a general guideline.
Hence not that much follow on network traffic.

graphics or other content using http into scratchpad afterwards, so you
could guess the one time hit is maybe 20k (static scratchpad is limited, but
there is other working memory for gfx).
