Help WiFi concerns

I have a 12mbps connection at home. Speed tests on my laptop (connected via wireless/wifi modem) match what I should be getting (11-12 mbps).

When I do a speed test on my Nexus One (when it's connected to the WiFi) - I can't hit higher than about 5.7mbps down and 4-5 mbps up.

I didn't think this phone was capped...

Could be related to the speed of the processor and RAM. I did a speed test for 3G and only pulled 400kbps. When I tethered it to my laptop, my connection was twice as much. Been wondering about this as well.
