N95 spyphone

Employees and other owners of the Nokia N95 may soon have reason to be suspicious of their handsets. Even though the phone has just been released in the United States, British company Spycatcher is now selling a spyphone version, cosmetically identical to the normal product. The difference in the spyphone is that all conversations are broadcast not only to the intended recipient, but the real buyer, allowing them to listen in from anywhere on Earth.

This includes text messages as well, and users cannot throw people off by switching SIM cards. Phone location can be pinpointed to the nearest cell site. Access to this technology is somewhat restricted, however: the fake N95 costs £2,703 ($5,540) with VAT, and may not be legal outside of the European Union.
