Simple streaming midlet (I hope I did not make any mistakes, when removing some extra testing stuff from the source).
This is edited version form one streaming midlet source code I grabbed somewhere, I did not anymore find the original code. [Edit: as pointed in the FN blog by Robert the source for this seems to be here http://developer.sonyericsson.com/si...aming_v800.jsp as the structure and variable names are same, even though there a number of differences in the code, hence I have copied the copyright disclaimer from the original available in the URL above. Thanks Robert! At the same time I apologize that Jöns Weimarck's work has been visible here without proper credit]
[Edit2: I removed the orginal one and rewrote the code as I felt that was proper thing to do. This current version works like the original one.]

Note also that the use of alerts here is not optimal. I was originally using alerts for another purpose than logging error information. now the log function looks like an ugly hack
