Samsung bans their own phone from HQ

In what sounds like a promotional sound bite, Samsung claims it's new model, the SCH-B570, has been banned from Samsung headquarters.

"8GB storage capacity is more than enough to steal all confidential data about our company," said Ki-Tae Lee, CEO of Samsung Electronics’ Telecommunications Network, reports Mobile Magazine.

Cameraphones have been barred from Samsung's factories as early as July 2003, when the company formely banned all employees and visitors from bringing in their camera phones, concerned over leakage of corporate information and industrial know-how.
