Yeah might take longer, but surely not as long as the 30 instructions
inserted by the _delay_us(45) statement. Plus, polling a flag is both
more elegant and safe than an ugly blind delay. really the only reason
why I didn't poll the flag is simply that I found it overkill to use a
precious I/O pin to wire the R/W line, when a simple delay can do the
job. But I do feel guilty now, and will probably start polling from now
on... a blind delay just isn't quite serious enough... shame on me...
