I'm glad I'll only ever fly low and slow over Manhattan or the Grand Canyon a total of about once ever. 99.9% of the time I'm flying the Fenix from one HD airport to another so I rarely look at anything that needs to use 100+mbps. Apart from panning around that global map. That seems to use all the bandwidth from what Ive seen.
