Cell Phone Jamming to be Debated at International Wireless Communication Expo

I really have not gotten into the Jamming issue much, but I am concerned about the level Jamming Technology, where it will become available, and who it will be used by. And it looks like that will be exactly the point Howard Melamed, CEO of CellAntenna Corporation will be discussing at the International Wireless Communication Expo. There are already a ton of retail jamming devices that start as low as $99 dollars, but the real issue that they will be discussing is: “whether jamming the signal is the right solution for combating contraband cell phones in prisons. The panelists will also discuss the implications beyond prisons and if hospitals, schools or even retailers can choose to jam signals at their own discretion”

The IWCE event will be held at the Las Vegas Convention Center in South Halls 3 and 4 and is scheduled for 11:10 a.m. through 12:10 p.m. EST on Friday, March 12, 2010. Contact information can be found after the break if you want to attend.
