Gary,
We are looking to purchase a device along the same lines.  From my research
so far, I think that you are going to be hard pressed to find a good layer 1
and layer 2 device any cheaper than a few grand.  We are currently looking
to getting a YellowJacket from www.bvsystems.com which starts at around
$2800.  I think it may be cheaper if you already have a compatible iPaq.  It
sounds like it might be a great tool to have.

Network Magazine had an article about various tools that mentions it and
other tools:

Subject: HW/SW Rogue AP Wireless Detection


Hello, there, I am looking for anyone who has had experience with a
combined (pref. PDA) device for signal detection/analysis.  I am familiar
with the Fluke Ipaq-based product
(http://www.flukenetworks.com/us/LAN/Handheld+Testers/WaveRunner/Overview.ht
m), but it is quite expensive (app. $2500 US or more).  The rogue AP
detection is a crucial part of this.  Any thoughts?

Regards,

Gary Nugent
