Hi
      Can someone tell me if there are any laws regarding wireless
theft?


I don't think Congress has caught up with this yet. But from what 
I hear (usual disclaimer: INAL), you are free to pick up the
signal as long as you are not breaking any WEP or other login
restriction. Its kind of like CB radio. Everyone can legally listening
to you chatting on CB radio.
