My primary interest is:
1. A small app optimized to seek out available public Wifi sites.
2. An app to defend my little Netbook Puppy when using public Wifi's.
3. An app for when a friend or neighbor needs help troubleshooting Wifi, especially for router security problems.
Is Growl a suotable answer?
Or ???

That's one way to fool the crackers....slip a puppy in unannounced with no fanfare.....
Interesting, but I think we still need better Lan/Wifi setup wizard to take full advantage of its capabilities
Couldn't go wardriving easily eh? [not with my eyes, I can't see the white on black...

As for wardriving... airmon-ng works well too.

The download site is here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=55874
But the discussion and feedback seems to be here ... so ...
It looks good but I think lacks the correct driver or maybe has an old version of pwireless (which I have found to be a troublesome app).
I can see my router but pwireless insists that it wants a WEP code when it is WPA.
It creates the appearance of a connection but does not work.
I recall this as an old problem with the base distro of Puppy upon which you built it.
It brings back memories of wireless tail-chasing ...
dpup009 works really well on most of the pcs here, perhaps what it uses for wireless nics might be ported over?
