What's better than outfitting your computer with a wireless network finder and a USB flash drive? Outfitting your computer with a wireless network finder and a USB flash drive in one. Vunex's WiFiWalker folds both functions into a device about the size of an iPod shuffle. The small screen even seems to tell you the network's SSID and whether or not it's open.
We've got nothing yet on pricing, availability, or capacity on the flash drive, and yet I'm still all a'tingle. The combination is a natural (like chocolate and peanut butter).After all, it can't be any more expensive than the Chewbacca drive—and he may be my co-pilot, but can that furabll find Wi-Fi networks? I think not.
