Now every so often, when it opens the connection it reports "Socket already in use". No it bl**dy well isn't.

<mode = guessing>
When a connection is closed, the system puts the socket previously associated with that connection in the so-called TIME_WAIT state for approx. 120 seconds, in order to detect (and discard!) any trailing packets which may still arrive if things went wrong during closure of the connection.
IIRC, the ICS-components have a "re-use socket" option somewhere. If this option is enabled, and a new connect is attempted within the foresaid time period => bingo!
