In other news, reader David Blumenstein pointed out WiFind, a shareware utility from TastyApps that supplements the airport menu in Mac OS X.
Here, a user can click on the wireless network selector and observe additional information such as signal strength and whether or not a given network is open or locked.
WiFind is a 481 kilobyte download for the demo version and requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later to run. The program retails for an US$8.00 registration fee and is coded as a universal binary capable of running at native speeds on both PowerPC and Intel-based hardware.
If you’re tried WiFind and have either positive or negative feedback about it, let us know.

I worked with tastyapps on the WiFind project – they are really cool people, helped me put the app together… and now they are helping me market it.
uhhh……how about free?
Airport Wireless, from MacWireless, is just as good, maybe it doesn’t integrate into the airport menu but it is free and a widget (just as easy)
