Hi folks, 

This is slightly off topic but I know 
that some people on list would be interested.
A while ago I wrote a C code for generating 
true random numbers from Wi-Fi 
background noise  :-D

For the theory of operation and C code click:

Enjoy!

ps: In fact, honestly, I'm interested in 
your Wi-Fi material. If you test the code
PLEASE return feedback (vendor name, driver)
to iwrandom@gmail.com

ps2: hey this is not completely off topic!
true random numbers are needed for Optimistic 
DAD ;-)
