JN> I just purchased a MOT 2900 cell phone, and was just going through 
JN> the
JN> manual.
JN> The following paragraph was found on page 82 of the users manual 
JN> under
JN> RULES, REGULATIONS & PRECAUTIONS:
JN> PRIVACY
JN> As a telephone user, you have come to assume a certain standard of
JN> privacy when you place or receive a telephone call via the 
JN> traditional
JN> wireline systems.  However, because cellular radiotelephones utilize
JN> radio transmissions to effect calls, the same standard cannot always 
JN> be
JN> assured.  While it is unlawful for an unauthorized person to divulge 
JN> or
JN> use any information obtained from intercepting or "listening in on"
JN> conversations intended for others, you should not assume that your
JN> conversation is completely secure.  Commercially available scanning
JN> equipment can permit a third party to monitor the radio channels used
JN> for cellular telephone calls.
JN> Finally, a universal warning..  Next step is to get it on a label to 
JN> be
JN> placed on the cell phone, rather than on page 82 of the users manual!
    Even on page 82, you get more warning than many important items get in 
_car_ owner manuals!
