It's funny, but I didn't take account of the opposite; that there was any 
merits to polling inbetween the interrupts for better resolution.

Takashi pointed out the need for this and we had some discussion. Check 
the other thread, where I provided a newer revision of the code.

The good thing is I think we can have all the things we want and be bug 
free, just I have to understand the specification.

It would be great if you would like to take a look at the newer code for 
any problems you can see. I was going to run it for a few days then turn 
it into some patches.
