If anyone is planning to do this, you can get the foam here (main site, search for unifoam).
It's known as computer foam, special in that it's nonconductive and doesn't create electrostatic discharge, which is probably why they chose it for this purpose. You'll find hard drives often encased in it.

You're right. I think James bond would have something along the lines of this, only 5 times smaller and equipped with a built-in single-shot pistol and one button on the side that "hacks" the wireless network for him.

I have found plenty of wireless hotspots, though admittedly not official. A very pleasant place to sit and read email is in the Pret a Manger cafe at the north end of Carnaby street in London. There are several unencrypted networks accessible there that will happily hand out a DHCP lease.
Interestingly, running Kismet I was initally confused by the networks that kept popping up only to disappear again, till I realised that they are the London buses broadcasting their location and the route that they are on, or at least as far as I can tell that's what it is. Anyone know any better what stuff like "xxxWESTBOURNE PARKyyy" is?

How are you supposed to fugure out where the connectivity is? By looking at the GPS?
