Looks great! I love widgets that serve a single purpose rather than trying to solve everything. Developers don't seem to understand how memory requirements increase when you add functionality, and with widgets, they should really be modular.
My only suggestion would be that when the widget is refreshing, to animate the refresh button on the left rather than changing the text color to red. Would improve the design score, in my opinion.

Can you have a toggle switch (remember the back CAN be larger than the face!) to have it show the LOCAL IP when you cick it? toggle between Wan & Local?

I prefer BwanaDik (no widget) http://www.jschilling.net/sw_bwanadik.php which displays both internal and external IP. It even shows whether you're online or not.

Very nice. Could use some different color backgrounds, so we can distinguish between the different interfaces. Thanks for the widget.

It works nicely, though it would be really nice to have an icon to indicate whether the IP was WAN, ethernet, or airport. The NetStat widget did this nicely, but its WAN detection seems to be broken now, so I've switched to your IP widget.

This latest version fails to get my WAN address. Fortunately I saved a copy of v2.3, which still works.
Don't know why, but several IP-getting widgets don't work... Network Stat 1.3 has the same problem, while Netstat 2.5 does not.

@maco
check your firewall configuartion. You have to allow the terminal app curl to connect to the Internet with http.
curl is used since v2.4, because it is much more stable than Apples built-in Widget Methods.
