Interestingly, Panasonic’s P903i supports a new security mechanism that’s capable of locking the phone when it’s taken a certain distance from an RFID card stored in the owner’s wallet, handbag, or clothing — while it won’t prevent your phone from being stolen, it’s not a bad idea for stopping the baddies from placing international calls on it.

That is wicked!
