Isn't there an I-phone app that lets you take a photo of the grid and then solves it for you?
Just think of all the things you could do with your life if you didn't have to bother with the sudoku.Comment

Taking out my own pen, I proceeded to fill the entire grid in as he watched. What's more, rather than filling in each individual word, I went across the rows. Then I handed it to him so he could check that it was, indeed, correctly completed.
He seemed rather taken abackComment

I've got a little application on my PDA that generates sudoku puzzles called Superdoku, it's very enjoyable on the harder levels.
I don't see sudoku as terrifically challenging it's just a nice mental diversion which is probably what it's designed for.
Good fun as a personal entertainment.Comment
