I wouldn't normally post something like this, but the guy's done a little bit of homework on a huge variety of topics, so it's really an excellent hoax, seen from a distance.
Here's on thing giving me some doubts, though (but of course if this is true he may have just pulled it from Google somewhere):
"Here4s another myth: you cannot hack bluetooth from a distance of more than 40 metres. Not true. My technical partner Felix can crack it at over half a kilometre. Which is why he enjoys driving around so much in areas where we know British, American, Israeli or Russian ops are living or working. The great thing about many German cities is that most affordable residences are within metres of the street anyway."
Any comments?

I believe they went a bit over a kilometer at Defcon (against a knowing volunteer, so they say) from a hotel rooftop.
The rest sounds perfectly plausible, as well. WEP is Swiss cheese, guys tell their girlfriends too much and girlfriends gossip amongst themselves.
Nothing to see here. Move along.
