Hi, is there any way to retrieve the IMEI number of a cellphone, using javascript?

+1  A: 

No, javascript running on the mobile's browser can't access this information.

You could do it with Java (inside a Midlet), but this is device dependent and isn't available for all manufacturers.

Could you please comment on this article:http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/Retrieving_IMEI_in_WRT
I wasn't aware of the Nokia's Web Runtime Technology that allows you to do so. Anyway this only runs on Nokia phones. I don't expect to find something similar for other phones.
