Why bother whipping your notebook out to check for Wi-Fi hotspots when you can just look at your chest?
Meet the Wi-Fi Detecting T-Shirt with a graphic that glows whenever it detects some of that wireless goodness in the vicinity. The stronger the signal, the brighter the bars glow, fluctuating dynamically with the signal strength. Yes, people will look at you oddly indeed.
Still, I am tempted but, I’m not sure if this crosses the razor thin ‘Geeky Yet Cool/Naff & Pants’ line. I think it's probably cooler than the Animated Transformers T-Shirt but not as much fun as the Animated Pong T-Shirt.
You can take your own fashion risk here for £20. -Martin Lynch

i have one and what they dont tell you is that the panel is an awful plastic lump on your chest, which is why its black to hide it,avoid
funny idea - and the fact someone on this site actually owns one of these - is even funnier.
if you want the real deal you need you need to buy the ThinkGeek version. I believe a company called Thumbs Up are the distributor here in the UK
Yes, it was the ThinkGeek version and its awful, and it was a present before any one asks.
