Wi-Fi / Hot Spot Finder (Gadget) Any Ideas

I saw this on Play.com (View Here) after reading the post http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...08&postcount=1

Anyone know of a Good Wi-Fi Detector? not PC based (ie Software) but a Keyring or Gadget.......

Cheers

Maplin (www.maplin.co.uk) have two:

A78FA Wifi Hotspot Finder · detect the presence of WIFI networks in any place · no need to start up a notebook to find a WIFI hot spot · detects all 802.11b and 802.11g wireless protocol...

A37CJ Wifi n Spy Finder - ever struggled to find a hot spot? well not any more. this brilliant little gadget will tell you where the strongest signals are and save you having to boot up your device. it will even spot nearby wireless cameras/monitoring devices to protect your privacy....

I know it's not a gadget, but there's some software for Windows Mobile called WiFiFoFum which is a brilliant AP finder.
