Thanks. Elegant code is so much more rewarding.

However, don't knock your solution completely. If the input can be represented as a string (such as reading the number from the command line), a solution such as bacon's or mine would be the best one. However, if the input is already in integer form (though the integer the OP specified won't fit into a 32 bit integer), then a solution along the lines you've presented will be the only choice. And yours looks pretty elegant to me!
