Product Description

Here at ThinkGeek we're pretty lazy when it comes to technology. We expect our gadgets to do all the busywork while we focus on the high level important tasks like reading blogs. That's why we hate to have to crack open our laptops just to see if there is any wi-fi internet access about... and keychain wi-fi detectors, we would have to actually remove them from our pockets to look at them. But now thanks to the ingenious ThinkGeek robot monkeys you can display the current wi-fi signal strength to yourself and everyone around you with this stylish Wi-Fi Detector Shirt. The glowing bars on the front of the shirt dynamically change as the surrounding wi-fi signal strength fluctuates. Finally you can get the attention you deserve as others bow to you as their reverential wi-fi god, while geeky chicks swoon at your presence. You can thank us later.

It certainly looks nice, but the fabric screen on the surface of the shirt looks very obvious that its just an attachment onto the shirt. Hence, wearing it makes me look weird as the edge of the fabric screen protrudes out of my body. The comfort level is too compromised.
I will only recommend this for die-hard WiFi geek who wouldn't mind the discomfort of wearing a T-Shirt for the extra feature.

People for some reason don't know what this is. Personally, it makes me happy because they don't and I do. I love this shirt. The batteries are a little annoying but you can just wear another shirt under it (or a bra) and you won't even notice them.I bought one for my boyfriend, and he loves it. After all, who wants to go through the annoying process of turning on a computer to find a wi-fi network?

I had my eye on this shirt for a long time, so I was very happy to show it off when I got it. I wore it for all of 3 hours at work (just sitting in a chair more or less) before it just stopped working for no reason.

I am hoping ThinkGeek will give me a refund for this.
