Doesn't AirPort do the same thing?

With MacStumbler the interface and info is more complete, but wouldn't available networks show up automatically in the AirPort drop- down menulet under 10.2.2?

Yes, but it doesn't save them like MacStumbler. Oooh, and I think MacStumbler finds them faster.

It does, in fact this is how I orginally started wardriving. Driving stickshift while clicking the mouse button and glancing at the screen was just a little unsafe, so I created MacStumbler

MacStumbler also shows you a lot more info about the networks than just the menu does, you might just think of it as a more detailed view.

I just checked it out today- it is a very cool app and certainly easier when driving- the alert sounds really help.

Now to wait for someone to post directions for a dongle hack on the new iBooks so I can get one of those big hunkerin' external antennae.

Just route the pigtail under the keyboard and have it come out by the screen (and don't plug in the little thing on the keyboard [plug it in on the right, but not the left]). It leaves your keyboard all loppy, but for now, it's a temporary soultion.
