iphoneClearTouches Issue

[Terry Judd]

A couple of approaches you could try...

1. disable the button on the first touch and then enable it again on closeCard
2. display the modal activity indicator
3. use a send construct to fire the 'next' routine and check the pending messages to see whether the message is already queued, cancelling the 'next' request if it already is.
