we were talking about cracking WEP a little bit ago,
and i caught mention of this article on hackaday.com.

http://www.airtightnetworks.net/knowledgecenter/wep-caffelatte.html

now they can apparently crack WEP by just being in range of a computer and no longer need to be in range of an AP.
the article also includes links to download the original presentation on the topic as well as the press release.
