According to a new blog (terminal23) I’ve been reading, who keeps up with another blog (joatBlog) I read, the wi-spy is going to be twice the price starting Feb. 1st. That’s in 20 days for those of you that think math is hard (you know who you are, Jeff)

Ok, so what exactly is a Wi-Spy?

Wi-Spy™ is the world’s smallest 2.4 GHz spectrum analyzer*. Wi-Spy is perfect for troubleshooting interference from the following devices:

* Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n)
* Microwave Ovens
* Cordless Phones
* Zigbee
* Bluetooth

Who needs Wi-Spy?
You may need Wi-Spy if:

* You deploy and maintain Wi-Fi networks
* Your Wi-Fi has intermittent bandwidth problems
* The microwave interferes with your Wi-Fi network
* When the phone rings your network connection drops
* Your neighbors, family, and friends constantly call you for free tech support

Also, it looks like the guys over at MetaGeek (the makers of the Wi-Spy), are working on a new software release for this little device.

The screenshots for this little thing look amazing. Take a look at them here:
