    James would knot have this.

    1) It's not in an Aston Martin

    2) It's a fricken breifcase. he'd just put it in his watch

    3) it requires more than a twist & push of a button.

    So no, this is a geek case, not a james bond one. :)

    If James Bond had this he'd find there are very few wireless hotspots in England to use it..... BTW it's not knot it's not.

  14. Wireless and Driving? Nah... by WwWonka · · Score: 3, Funny

    Is it just me or does the term "Wireless Wardriving" seem a tad redundant? I mean think about the opposite side of the spectrum, "Cabled Wardriving"?

      I think wardriving is a stupid term. The first time I heard it, I pictured a bunch of college kids in hopped up rice burners (with the performance enhancing belly lights, of course - think "Fast and Furious") tearing down I-5 trying to run each other off the road. So, wireless wardriving... huh? You mean they used to use some sort of wire to run each other off the road, but they became obsolete? I'm confused!

      And what do you call it of you hop from cafe to cafe on foot with a laptop trying to connect to wireless access points? Wireless wardining?

      I remember an episode when Spock was frustrated by the bearskins and bone knife technology of the mid 20th century?

      And didn't he once fabricate a laser from a crystal in his arm, and using a piece of steel from his prison bed with something from the cell light, to burn through the lock on their cell? Sorry, that was like a hundred years ago, to my dog anyway.

    This guy buys and discards a $350 drill, just to get its carrying case??? I bet when he was a kid, he ignored his toys and played with the boxes they came in.

    For what the dope spent on a wasted drill, he could've got a nice Zero Halliburton aluminum case, which seems a lot more like James Bond gear than a freakin' DeWalt drill case.

    Got a new IBM Think Pad for work the other day, comes with 802.11b built in. Decided to test out a new VPN client and realized I had "tone" on the wireless. So I checked out how many points I could connect to. Not surprisingly on 7th Ave in NYC there were a lot of point to choose from, and all were unsecured. So I picked on and began working out the kinks of the new VPN Client software.

    About and hour later I am working (though the VPN) with my feet up and the laptop on my lap when i notice some people gesticulating wildly at their window pointing at me! I open my window (5th sotry) and they are yelling at me to get off their network!

    I just closed my shade.
