I tend to look in second hand shops as there are often some good basic books.
Occasionaly i have found some inspirational ones such as 'Nature' and 'photographing the World Around You' by Freeman Patterson and arty books such as those by Richard Long.

You can find them on pentaxforums.com I believe, that's also where I found these links.

Wireless security is getting so much easier to set up, I believe it's a problem which will go away of its own accord before long.
basic WEP security is fairly easily bypassed, but the fact that someone had to break in removes any ambiguity about weather or not they were supposed to be there.
However standard passwords aren't accept by the German law because that's what happened with the man that was on holiday what you talked about.

FWIW in the US there have been convictions in cases where people have used unsecured wifi without authorisation. Not sure about the UK.
And even some devices automatically connect to the strongest network sometimes so who is wrong then?
From what I understand here in the Netherlands an unsecured network is seen as provoking someone to use it so it's not punishable by law if you connect to it.
In Germany (precisely what Mongoose was talking about) has just let that you must secure your wireless network or as you can pay a fine off €100 if somebody else downloads illegal files with it.

I don't think that is correct. It's akin to saying that if my bicycle is not chained up you can ride off with it.

It's also worth just having a try to connect in a cafe while having a welcome beer or coffee - many will give you a free connection then
Don't know if it's so in every country.
Yes it's wrong but in a way you're envoking it to be ride on by somebody else by not securing it, it would be hard to get your right in this.

The only sad things is there I haven't found any cheap way to do that.
I'm hoping someone here would know a great product that could do it or maybe even a DIY solution. The K10D has seals to keep some water out so it can get "moist" so to say.
