My Palm now has about 1.7 MB of fanfiction on it. This equates to about 5MB of raw html (more than that once you add the ff.net chrome), before reformatting into about 3MB of plain text.

My, how times have changed. It used to be that 10mbps Ethernet was cutting edge, and cost an arm and a leg. Now it's commonplace, even for home connections, and fibre-to-the-home is on the horizon.
