Is there some place this would be legal I should know about? In the US, transmitters have to have FCC approval -- unless it's locked down so only official Nokia firmware can alter the transmission characteristics, that's going to rule out SDRs with transmit capabilities. In my understanding, all other "civilised" places have similar regulatory structures, so Nokia wouldn't be able to sell such a thing in any of their main markets.
