That's true,

Reading the wikipedia pages you suggested, I noticed A5/3 is a 3G. It is
quite odd and 2G phone/chip would support an 3G encryption algorithm....
Anyway, thanks for you input. I do not suspect you to work through a
pile of calypso docs, I guess you've got better ways to spend you're
time :-)
