I'll let you know, but the front is a piece of flexible plastic stuff. It also requires 3 AA batteries. I'm not sure what looks more geeky - walking around wearing the t-shirt or walking around with an open laptop trying to detect wi-fi signals. > > > > But the one who scored the most in our family was our 3 year old, > > which is how it should be. > > Well, I kind of wonder about that, it does seem like so many families > go so overboard with the younger kids and what does that really teach > them?
