Very Cool Book
If you want to read a very cool book check out Hardware Hacking: Have Fun While Voiding Your Warranty by Joe Grand (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...books&n=507846)
I picked it up and have really enjoyed it. Some very cool hardware hacks in there (including adding an external antenna connector to cards that don't have them). There is some really good info in there, and it is generally just a fun book to read. Also, the $28 Amazon price is really reasonable for a book of this caliber.

Absolutely!
It's a great read. I picked up my copy a little over a week ago. If you are even slightly inclined to tear stuff open, there's probably at least a couple of chapters you'll like.

Is the deal to get "hardware hacking for geeks" for cheap worth the extra money?

This is going to be an expensive month. I just ordered the Drive By WIFI guide, I pre-ordered Drive, Detect, Defend.
This book is just another you have recommended that I am going to have to buy, thanks guys, I haven’t done this much reading since 8’Th grade.

It was probably a pointless qustion anyway; I'm too poor a student to buy a single book, let alone two. The only books I read should be related to my course, and that's only if there's no cool journal articles on the subject. But anyway, I'm wandering, it's late; drugs have been consumed. Thanks for your help,
