I just started playing a Technomancer. I've run about 4 sessions now and have yet to find anything really cool to do yet! The only thing my skill set had been useful for is opening a door and a safe.

I know I can hack smartguns and drones But we have yet to come in to a situation were is wasn't a better idea to shot first hack later.

So I was hoping to get a few stories of some thing cool your Hacker/Techno has done in a game. The more information the better. I know that a hacker can be a great part of a shadowrun team. I just want to figure out how.

I love the Unwired book. IMO I think it has some of the best fluff ideas in the game. Over all however I feel the hacking rules are some of the hardest to learn and play in the game.
