Spy Phones for your own peace of mind

Not that I would ever plan on using one of these handset [damn they're pricey], Spy Phones offers an incredible selection of options as far as cell phone spying devices are concerned. Select from a handful of manufacturers or streamline your decision by selecting the type of device – method of spying – that will fit your needs. From simple eavesdropping to full-on Symbian OS listening and call recording devices.

These Spyphones look and operate like a normal phone……
But when you call the phone from one special number programmed in the phone the spy phone will be turned into a sophisticated bugging device, allowing you to hear what is going on in the vicinity of the phone. The spy phone works like a normal mobile phone and so shows nothing suspicious or unusual to the user. But when called using the special access number the phone answers but does not ring, light up, bleep or anything else. Even the display freezes.

Would any UNEASY readers ever consider purchasing a spy phone handset? They’re pricey little buggers.

  2. This seems like something that should show up on the MAKE blog. Anyone care to take a stab at building something like this?

    I could see it being useful to try and catch a cheating spouse.
