Exclamation Mobile Phone Radar Detectors

Welcome to MIB's Believe it or not.

I have heard from a few sources, not confirmed yet, that NOKIA have mobile phones, that when a special code is entered in the security section, they have the ability to detect Radar.

Believe it or not? Have your say. I have too check this out further, but if this is True, I just have to have one.

Wow...I haven't heard about this in at least two or three years. =) Here's a link to a post on how it was all a hoax. It did get my hopes up when I first heard about it tho. Would have been cheaper than paying for a V1.

Check out arivee's reply for some serious sarcasm.
