im trying to figure this out + not sure if a hack in php will work ...

someone wants to throw in a klipmart like app (video) for only broadband
users however i had a tough time explaining that there are a few factors to
consider like the load and that there was no way to programmatically
determine a clients connection speed through php itself.

my thinking for a hack include something like a hidden page which does a
session-based request in which a test image is sent out and then performing
a onload() back to the server and testing the session times ... but is this
practical?  any other ideas?

(people are out to kill the net) lol
