The OP was complaining about how much work it would be to implement
TCP, so I was comparing that to what he was proposing.  Using an
open-source TCP/IP implementation makes the comparison come out even
more in favor of TCP.

I've not used uIP, but it's by Adam Dunkels so it gets a few points
right away in favor.  I've used his protothreads library for stackless
multitasking on a uController with only a couple hundred bytes of RAM,
and it was very cool, very well done, and very useful.
