Earlier I read today's hack a day post about GM Onstar. Of course I need to get hold of one so the soon-to-be-released 0.4.1 can include support for it. If you have one (or possibly a Motorola Oncore board) and would like it to go to a good home, please contact me. (Just the VIU or VCIM box please, not the whole car)

Brad Templeton suggests extending beacons to include additional local information (lat/long, address, factoids, directions, hotspot info, etc). This is a great idea; I look forward to adding support for it into NetStumbler.
