Good God!

Downloading now!

I think you just made my week Caddy!

If there was a way to do it through a computer I would kiss you right now for this.

No freaking kidding! I'm really happy to see the Yahoo! Mail fix as well as the other that I mentioned above. My phone is nearly dead so I'm gonna have to wait till I can get to a charger. Damn!
