    In the recent 'Pocket-Sized Wireless Detection' comparison article on
    SecuityFocus, the Kensington unit you reference below was the crappy one.
    You don't want that - you really want the Smart ID WFS-1. The article
    states it was $30, but I've not seen it offered for less that $49, and
    it's backordered to boot.

    Condolences to Jesse and others that bought the WiFi Finder(tm).

    It's not the one that you are talking about, but I have seen this:
