According to an article in the Register, Anil Vora has invented a
handheld phone jammer for about Ł30.

But I can't find his company. Anyone know how to buy one of these?

To quote from the link:

"And while it may be legal to buy Mobile Squelcher, it is certainly illegal
to use it -- in the UK, at any rate, where authorities discourage
broadcasting on unauthorised airwaves through hefty fines."

Which is probably why no one is bothering to sell them.

what's the point in buying one, if you [legally] can't use it?

The article is four years old, Ł18.00 was mentioned and the product
never appeared - at least not in the UK - where its use would be
illegal.

I am not sure that would stop me getting one and using in on my daily
commute to Waterloo (in the non-mobiles car).

Oh, yeah. Big time.

Operating a low-power illegal "normal" transmitter (like an unlicensed
CB set) is one thing - a minor offence under Part I (s.1) of the
Wireless Telegraphy Act; they'll just get the kit seized, and a Police
caution. Perhaps a small fine if it's worth a prosecution. Maybe even
a suspended jail sentence if it was shown to be interfering with
licensed equipment (by accident).

Deliberate jamming, on the other hand, is a Part II (s.13) offence, and
a whole different order of magnitude. The Radiocommunications Agency
(www.radio.gov.uk) will rain Hellfire on offenders: expect a jail term
and/or (probably 'and') a stiff fine. And seizure of anything, not just
txing equipment, that could be argued to be relevant to the offence.

With the short range and low power he/she mentioned, it seems very
unlikely that he/she would get caught. Cellphone users would just
assume it was a fluke or a bad area rather than the work of an
"activist". Even if they complained, would the police or even the UK
equivalent of the FCC be interested in expending the resources to
track down and prosecute a nut with a few mW transmitter? I don't
think so. Selling it, on the other hand...

Sorry, I think I must have woken up. For the past decade or three, I've
been living in a dreamworld where the US ignores any international or
national laws it considers inconvenient.

The network can do what they like. If Mr bush said "would you mind turning
off your network for a few hours" and the network said "yeah, OK" then it's
up to them. It would piss off a huge amount of bill-paying customers
though.
