Just some things that came to my mind concerning OpenMoko/the Neo: a) Is the GSM-modem capable of simulating a GSM-basestation? And if so... b) ... can the GSM-modem act as an 'IMSI-Catcher' < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMSI-catcher >? c) If the GSM-modem is not able of doing the things mentioned above, could it be used for communication using the GSM-band but not some mobile service provider or one of their GSM-basestations with other (OpenMoko-enabled?-)phones? Like a regular walkie-talkie. Over the GSM-band ;-) d) What about law based frequency-regulations concerning c) ?
tim/minime (Please don't bash me for having 'evil ideas'. Discussing the reasons for and against IMSI-catching is a different item, this is just about the feasibility.) _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
