Just for fun I removed the extra concat on the stringbuilder and upped the cycles to 20 and 20,000. Running it several times showed that the 20 cycle loop was fairly close, where the 20,000 loop was not even near close. 0.0000089 vs.

I have to agree with the "equally shitty to use" statement. One of the other problems is that it is hard to get the features you want in a phone that you want. It's along the lines of "GPS, Bluetooth and good Camera: pick any 2." Yu do, how

Fairly interesting article here http://www.16-9.dk/2007-02/side11_inenglish.htm about the incident. According to the article, he was already a member (of the Friars Club) and this was actually his reason for leaving. Scroll down to 'The F
