You might be interested in a product called AirMagnet that runs on the
Compaq iPaq.
There's more information at:
http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/isn/2002-q2/0171.html
Also Bitshift has a nice tutorial on building a wardriving kit for the
iPaq worth a look at: http://www.bitshift.org/wardriving.shtml
I'm sure there are others, I'm just now trying to put together a
resource for C4I.org of sites with information on vulnerability
testing with handheld computers.
Cheers!
