It's actually funny that I was discussing this weeks before I had even heard of Hak.5 or the Interceptor itself was a near-similar idea with a small twist:
Why not integrate 3G via, say, a USB modem into the design? Verizon's DayPass is only $15/day for unlimited usage. I mean, I understand the modems are expensive and so is service, but wouldn't 3G connectivity make for even more fun when you don't even have to be nearby your target?
The device could simply use a VPN link to join itself to a home VPN to capture traffic. Or, perhaps, it could capture a days' worth of traffic (stored on a flash drive attached via hub?) and uplink it over 3G to a server.
Plus, using 3G instead of WiFi and keeping WiFi off will reduce risk of an IDS detecting rogue WiFi in the proximity.
Or am I thinking wrong in my idea?
