(It does me, anyway -- if I'm out and about, and see an open wifi network, I will jump on it if I need to access something. But, as wide open as WEP is, I'm not going to hack it, even knowing that I could without much effort.)

The first google result for 'WEP nexus one' has a good suggestion, though. Dump the WEP, and just use MAC address filtering.
lol ya, I didn't say I go around cracking people's WEP keys.
I know alot of people that just pain don't know how vulnerable WEP is.
I also know alot of people that are "straight-laced" citizens but they enjoy cracking WEP to get that internet connection if it's better than the others.
And I'd have to say there is a good chance there's a bad person that is gaining access to your router if you live in a bigger city.

I didn't even think of the older items though that don't have WPA capabilities.

agreed. if it somehow bypassed the boot of WM, then it would be cool.

I know your avatar from somewhere.....www.xda-developers.com perhaps?
Detroit if I'm not mistaken?
