Wired writes $15 phone, 3 minutes all that's needed to eavesdrop on GSM call "Speaking at the Chaos Computer Club (CCC) Congress in Berlin on Tuesday, a pair of researchers demonstrated a start-to-finish means of eavesdropping on encrypted GSM cellphone calls and text messages, using only four sub-$15 telephones as network ‘sniffers,’ a laptop computer, and a variety of open source software."
It's a nice step-by-step. I can't say I would have known how to do it myself, but I think I could have avoided the problems. I love that a two-terabyte rainbow table isn't a problem. The article even has a reference to The Wire.
