Two recent articles in the San Diego paper:
One on cyber crime mentioned that Qcom's computers had been hacked into in the past with sensitive data exposed. Anyone have any detail?
Two:
Aparently cell phone traffic is so dense and bothersome in Japan that a device called "Wave Wall", selling for $480, is used to block transmission of incoming and out going calls in some restaurants and theaters. 6000 units have been sold. Wouldn't it be nice if CDMA couldn't be blocked? Anyone know?

PS
I think the security features and non-cloneability of CDMA is an under marketed feature. I'm sure our techy guys are constantly listening to cell phone transmissions from a company in Sweden? What's the problem with a little industrial espionage among friends?

Grit your teeth, hang on and don't ever sell!
