A method of and device for transferring data is provided. The method includes determining a difference between a data segment that was transferred last relative to each of one or more data segments available to be transferred next. In some embodiments, for so long as no data segment available to be sent has been waiting too long, the data segment chosen to be sent next is the data segment having the smallest difference relative to the data segment transferred last. The chosen data segment is then transmitted as the next data segment transferred.
