It would be multiple shows! There was so much in that project GPS, WIFI, RS232 in buckets not to mention uSD. Not too cheap unfortunatly, adding the hardware up you wouldn't get much change out of US$200.

I built this tool Super Snooper which is a box that sits on my dash and logs wifi points as I drive around. Looks a bit steampunk but it works. I can specifiy open or closed points if I need. It will log the access point name, MAC Address, Signal strength, logitude and latitude as well as security type to a SD card on the fly. My original idea was for Skyhook but they use PDA's with wifi and with mobiles coming out with GPS in them I think wifi postioning is dead. Perhaps I will do a segment on how to make one lol. For the hardware freaks..... GPS - EM-406A SD card controller - Microdrive Controller - Picaxe 28x1 (program in BASIC) WIFI - Lantronix WiPort
