I love riding the bus with my PlayStationPortable device.

I can scan for wireless hooks as I ride, and see tens or hundreds
(La Jolla) with nearly a third or more open and unsecured.

Drive past an area with a lot of restaurants and see several.

It is a lot of fun. Nothing malicious as the bus is continually
moving, so there is always no chance of actual use.

I have a connection setup called "probe". Imagine that.

Short of the phone (and the bill) I have had what AppleTard is
offering for some time already... Except mine plays movies as well
as the songs and has photo albums and a full web browser (almost).

When I am at home, it hops on the network (and my PC) just fine,
either via the net hooks or USB link.

It has a wide screen display that shows movies so it is high
quality. The whole thing was $200.00 with another $50 for a GigStick.

It plays to headphones, sure... but this also actually has tiny
speaker drivers, and plays from the device in stereo.

iPod is playing iCatchUp, and they added a feature to one up them...
a phone... wait... two features. With the phone comes a monthly bill,
I am certain. At least one.

Give it a decade or two.
