The DDOS discussion is specifically referring to a "live" syn or syn/ack attack from hosts that respond to connection requests. A NAT'd cell phone wont, cant ever, respond to an unsolicited connection request.
*RING*!! *RING*!! Oh, I'm sorry, that was the clue phone ringing - it couldn't be your phone, since it wouldn't answer an unsolicited connection request.... You were saying? (To fill in the blanks - get a trojan loaded into the cellphone/PDA combo, and then send it a page telling it who/what to attack). -- Valdis Kletnieks Computer Systems Senior Engineer Virginia Tech
