Hi

What is the (practical) maximum data rate on the radio? I`m using the
tmote hardware from moteiv. 

I have seen these values:
  - max 25 packages / sec
  - max 29b / package
that is.. 25 * 29 * 8 = 5.8kbps. Correct??

But motive has this information on their homepage:
  - "250kbps 2.4GHz IEEE 802.15.4 Chipcon Wireless Transceiver"

I would like to sample data from one or more units at as high speed as
possible and send the sampled data in realtime on radio to a master unit.
