Default Check for Wifi?

I am nearly finished with an app that is 95% offline but does have an online component. With the iPhone this is no problem, it can connect anywhere.

But I'd like to check if an iPod Touch user can get to the internet. If not, I'd like to gray out and/or notify the user that the service is unavailable in their area.

If possible, I'd like to check if the user CAN get to the internet, not just if they are connected. Is there a way to programmatically see if they are in range of a wifi network? - again, not just check if they are currently connected to one. I've searched for wireless and wifi in the docs, but nothing useful came up, except, maybe, reachability. But I've seen other apps that do all kinds of wifi functions, including automatically connecting you to an available network.

This isn't a show stopper by any means, but if this is doable I'd love to implement it before I release the app.

Any help is appreciated!
