QHttp and QFtp were sequential. You needed to have the class time out on a command before the next was executed. You couldn't do the timeout from outside the class. (and they can't do from the inside either, but that's a different
story)

QNAM runs stuff in parallel. If you need to time out a QNetworkReply, abort() it. That means you can do from the outside with a simple QTimer.

Agreed.. but it would be even easier... if abort was a slot :)
