The newer model even has 512M of flash memory AND has the drivers on a CD-ROM emulator memory chip so that you don't need to carry around the CD to install it on a new computer. See <a href="http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Description=usb+wireless+detector&x=0&y=0" rel="nofollow">newegg</a> for details. *yawn* Trendnet has had, for a couple years now, a hotspot finder with the same features (multiple networks, SSID, signal strength, LCD display, etc.) but that ALSO can plug into a usb port and be used as a wireless adapter for the computer (and even re-charges the battery when plugged in) for quite some time and has sold for around $30.00 (after rebate.)
