This is a somewhat amusing story originally linked to from the Daily Rotten. It's about a Hewlett Packard wireless keyboard manufactured in Norway:

Basically, a man was typing on his wireless keyboard, but the information he was typing was showing up on his neighbors computer screen.
From the article:
Hewlett-Packard first claimed that this was a quirk, but replacement equipment produced the same results, with information being directly transmitted to the neighbor's computer, despite it being far out of advertised range and with several walls between.
I guess this isn't the first time something like this has happened. There are other links on the right hand side of the page that you can click on with similar stories.
