There's not a ton available for them, at least not that I've found while searching. You're missing winpcap support, which a lot of the free tools rely on. I've written the polito.it guys, and they have no immediate plans to finish up any CE support. If you're looking for just general-purpose tools, this guys has done an amazing amount of porting work: http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/software.html Also available is Ceniffer http://www.epiphan.com/products_ceniffer.html which is a little pricey. But, in general, if you're looking for Kismit, Netstumbler, Airsnort, etc... there's nothing in the same category that I'm aware of. Now, if you want to put Linux on the iPaq instead, that's a different story. Hardware-wise, you can get sleeves that will take two pcmcia slots, and will let you have your 802.11b card and GPS both, so you can perhaps drop your whole war-walking rig in your pants. So, from that point of view, the can be a concern for security.
