Just found this thread...
Have a question.

I'm using Maxis 3G(the rm120 package) with a Dopod 900 via usb connection.

It used to be normal like months ago but later on the pictures/graphic loaded from the internet would appear to be compressed, as in the quality is lower.

Tried on other notebooks/desktops but it's still the same. Tried with Streamyx, everything looks normal. Definitely not a hardware issue.

My guess is.. this is some sort of mechanism for Maxis to save their bandwidth?

Ah I see... thanks. I didn't know that. Thought they're the same. Pfft...
