From a report:
www.inteldaily.com...
It seems that a group interested in determining more about the inner workings of the iPhone has stumbled across code that dumps internal phone data
across the network.
According to the group, the data dumped includes: phonebook contacts, SMS, recent calls, history of web browser, etc.
The combination of the fact that AT&T is the "exclusive" provider of this phone and AT&T's already expressed views on covert surveillance on US
citizens raises my suspicions.

[Note that people are saying that this is a "mobile backup" capability of the phone, but it has been stated that it can be remotely triggered...
hmmm...]
