You confuse me with someone else, just busy with work etc (I'm a conslutant).

Edit: though it's somewhat amusing that someone would think I'd be gunning for Phd, I wonder how long until there's a forum submeme to the tune of http://www.schneierfacts.com/ (though there's a lot of people smarter than me in this community that would probably be more deserving)

Also I noticed that the issue was not with the gprs0 interface and that more elegant solution might be overly complex.
