coconutWiFi displays you a small aqua-bubble at the top of your screen which indicates whether you're in range of a wireless network or not.
The app also tells you if the wireless networks in your range are encrypted or open, so you won't miss the next open wireless network any more.

Functionality of the app is great. Just something to point out. I'm color blind and cannot tell the difference between the green and amber icons at all! I have to use the other pictos that are kinda ugly :(

I find this very useful, as I no longer have to wait forever for my Powerbook to pick up on the network and then go down the list to find one that's unencrypted. Especially handy when traveling.
