Couldn't it be just about anyone wanting insider info? I know that's not much fun, but really. Was it necessarily VW involved? Couldn’t it be just about anyone wanting insider info?

All the fancy high tech stuff is sourced from specific channels, most of whown are probably well known to the kind of investigators that Porsche could bring to bear on the case. And they probably know people that they could pull in favors with to get these vendors to squeal. Whereas baby monitors are dirt cheap, have REALLY sensitive mics, and can be bought at any toy or dept store. Pay cash for one, handle it with gloves on, and they'll never know where it came from or who bought it. Freakin' brilliant if you ask me. What yank said.

Keep it simple stupid. Baby monitor... cheap, effective, available. There is also an trace element of plausible deniably. "Oh! That is where I left my baby monitor. I was wondering where it was." Can't claim that with an obvious bug. KISS… Keep it simple stupid.

Baby monitor… cheap, effective, available.

There is also an trace element of plausible deniably. “Oh! That is where I left my baby monitor. I was wondering where it was.” Can’t claim that with an obvious bug.

Perhaps the baby monitor was left for them to find and nothing else but other devises were set up for the conferance that would not be suspect. Who can really know? Funny… or maybe not.
