I just wear a wig over mine. Nobody notices, not even all the guys in suits who keep following me everywhere.

I wonder if I can catch more open wifi spots if I wear a tinfoil hat and keep holding my N800 over my head to catch the radio signals.

That's how I finally got the gps in my N810 to work.

Wow! I didn't know anyone else did that!

But, my wig is made of tin-foil too, so that the reception isn't harmed.
