HttpConnection hangs !!!

I have gone through a lot of posts on the same problem - (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url) - hangs (in my case, it is the E50).

It works fine when the GPRS access point is available but when it is not, it just hangs !

I started the HttpConnection.open code in a separate thread but was very surprised when the main program that spawned the thread hang even as the thread started on its own.

I have seen that people have complained about this on a variety of phones and none seem to have got a solution that works cleanly across phone models. Can anyone help ?

Thanks
