ADS Tech MXL-581 Media-Link Entertainment Receiver $55 shipped on WOOT [Get this deal]
from deals site SlickDeals
Kind of cool...streams video, photos, music, onto your TV from a computer..and operates wirelessly or by a wired connection...Im not sure if its the best deal in the world, but I think its kind of neat for the price...I believe the only gripe that some may have about this is that it doesnt have a HDMI port for you savvy HDTV users, but regardless I think its a cool and somewhat inexpensive way to stream stuff to your big-screen TV..

PriceGrabber
is $78.60
NewEgg has it for $74.99 but with $6.41 shipping
..so not a bad price I suppose...
