Greeting. Found this nice app over at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488566 It's a wifi scanner app in the early stages of development. I gotta say though, it works great as it is now. Thought i'd share my find with you all, and hopefully you'll find it as useful as i have. The dev is M0n5ter, and he's really been putting out quality updates on this. Enjoy,

Hi guys!
Since all of you here are quite experienced, I'd like you to check out and comment my in-progress work.
I'm writing yet another WiFi discovery tool (like Hitchhiker or WiFi companion).
Today I'm on a very early stage:
- Many things just not working (now it is )
- No ability to autoconnect/enter the key
What i've got:
- It shows current WiFi status
- It can turn WiFi on and off
- It is finger friendly
- It supports VGA and it looks nice after all
Please give me your feedback (including concerns regarding English grammar used, since I'm Russian) Thanks!
