YES! I have a GPS.. :)

It's been a while since I have come back from SANS Munich. There, while attending the 601 Track as a volunteer I've got a "SWAT Kit" that contains both a GPS receiver and some wireless toys to perform a IEEE 802.1x audit.

Today, after writing about 1500 words and get bored, I decided to set the GPS up. Guess what: IT WORKS!

Below is a capture of a small tryout I've made using the GPS TrackMaker software (http://www.gpstm.com/) and a small map from Google Earth.



The map is my home surroundings and the blue line is where I was walking while having the GPS on. It was weird to see everybody looking at me in the parking lot with my laptop as a weirdo... nevermind.

When I have some more time I will do a small wireless audit and let you know of the results. Wireless users around Egham: BEWARE! :D
