They may do some magic with bandwidth delay products.. If that was the case, 
they may have written it for a standard latency versus something that is 
unreasonable by interweb standards. 

I don't know how they calculate bandwidth, but I was surprised that their system 
gave such wrong results under what were effectively lab conditions.

It'd be nice to know if NDT was not accurate as well.  Anyone tested it?
