The last time I used the internet with a mobile phone was the day I bought my very first one, 6 years ago, when I accidentally hit the "internet" button. Now your tool made me dig up the user manual and try it again. And it works! Hooray! Now I'm prepared for the Christmas Holidays far from my computer. Thank you very much for this tool, it's just what I needed. And it even shows the globalhash!
