    I got one a year and a half ago when they first came out. It SOUNDS a lot cooler then it really is. Save your money, it'll be neat for like 10 minutes then you'll shake your head sadly and never use it again.

    I hear that a lot. I think it can't distinguish between b, g, and cordless phone signals

    Yeah, this was a freakin waste of time. I bought one a long time ago.. It just stays lit up all the time. Only cool one out there is the one that shows the SSID with some real info.. But that one is as big as the PDA I "warwalk" with anyways :P
