Re: GSM was cracked

The encyption on GSM is weak. iDEN which is used by Nextel is encrypted better and much more secure. 3G uses a better encryption pattern though.

Valencia, CA		 I would tend to agree. That end of GSM is quite old. At least 3G has a CDMA based interface which is much more difficult to hack.

Yea. I don't feel unsecure talking on my AT&T phone. But I really have nothing to hide, I just fear stalkers.

If I want to keep something secret like my job stuff, I just use Nextel Direct Connect, which is over a secure encrypted ip network. But stuff really important, I do it the old fashion way. In person
