Somebody said the FBI grabbed the packaging and chargers left behind.
Batteries and phones were also packaged separately. Cheaper to ship that way?

"Why go through the hassle of buying them in the USA? " This is where they live and probably where they will be used?
Didn't you even read the quote from the original poster in my comment?
Perhaps they are buying them and sending them off to Iraq for use in IED's. I wonder if they are compatible with the phone system over there.

"So you think there is a Constitutional right to own an untraceable disposable cell phone? Or to buy large quantities of anything for resale ..."
Yes there is a Constitutional right, its called the Ninth Amendment!! Look it up some time!
Just because its not written in the Constitution doesn't mean the gov't can restrict this activity.

Wireless telephones could be used to detonate a bomb, or they could be used to make a bomb, Grey said. Wouldn't a charger be needed?
To: The_Media_never_lie
They only need a few chargers, not thousands. Each charger is not unique to the phone. Excess chargers just gum up the storage.

I think explosives would be more important

Isn't technology wonderful!
As always, a double-edged sword. I sometimes wonder if mankind will manage to survive himself.

It isn't technology's fault, the problem is technology in the hands of barbarians!

Just like the BBC TV tax...in the USA, such a tax would most likely be viewed as a violation of the First Amendment...but then again, the government owns the airwaves, so such a tax could be viewed like a landlord (in this case the government) charging rent (in this case a TV tax) to a tenant (in this case the owner of a TV set). I hope Hitlery doesn't read this and get any ideas in '08/'09.
