The interesting question is always if this will break someone else's setup.
I've never really understood the strange setting of 1.5MBps, but on the
other hand it _is_ a reality on most boards.

Personally I don't care that much either way, but would like a comment
from the other people working on that device - if possible.

I guess if we don't hear anything, I'll apply it nevertheless at some point
