Wait. Is it really an endless loop, or just a queue that is getting filled up faster than it empties resulting in a more DOS-style problem? Because it sounds much more like the second case, in which case not only does it not brick the phone, but it isn't even a bug...

OP:Nope, you didnt read the code. Try reading the other version I posted. Works without a loop as well.
errr, that's what I said...
Which is why I wrote "OP" in front :)
In the post that I replied to, you said that Springboard is getting into an endless loop. Having looked at the code that you posted, I commented that it doesn't look like an endless loop but more like a denial of service type problem, to which you replied that I should read the code, and that it doesn't need a loop, which was just repeating my point about it not appearing to be a loop!

Ahhh, I give up. Just try reading what I wrote before replying, mkay?
