I saw a new cordless phone made by Motorola in a retail outlet today
that is supposedly "Secure from eavesdroppers." I asked the
salespeople for more technical info, but they weren't very helpful.
Does anyone have any information on this? I didn't notice any "Not
for Export" stickers on the box, and the ITAR does cover
spread-spectrum technology. So is it analog or digital? Is it just
doing simple analog tricks, or is it encrypting a bitstream? Clipper
maybe? I doubt it. Any info appreciated.
