Definitely disagree.

GPRS is rarely as good as 400ms (normally nearer 600ms, and sometimes
much more, and thats with dedicated bearers, not VPN over internet)
and Microsoft Terminal Services (which is pretty similar to Citrix)
works just fine across that link.

On the (1500 session, soon to be 3000 session) Terminal Services farm
I was responsible for the design for, many of the users are on 50 or
100+ ms and it all works just fine, including formal service levels
on response time.

MTS is well worth trying in high latency environments; it does work
impressively well.
