Mod the parent up!
Ive just bought an Ipaq with wireless on, so i thought i would have a wander around town on my lunch hour with WiFiFoFum scanning ( Think kismet / netstumbler for pocket pc ).
As i sit back here at my desk i can see it picked up 138 unique networks, and only 27 of those are showing as having WEP / WPA. Many of them even still have SSID's of 'linksys' and 'NETGEAR' etc.
Something such as hitchhiker will even automatically try to associate and get web access through the AP with the zero user effort.
