    Roku HD Player for $79.99

    I know it's not woodworking related but I remembered there were some members that highly regarded this device. Amazon has it on sale for $79.99. Not sure if this is the best deal but seems like a good price for an awesome device. Could not remember how to do the BT3 link generator thingy so feel free to edit the post if you know how to.

    Don't buy this. They work too well, esp. since they put on-screen search and auto-recommend lists on the device w/o having to go to your computer browser to select movies to watch. Your wife will start watching movies nonstop and then you will need to buy more bandwidth from your ISP. Geez I have 3Mit/s BW and I have a hard time watching You-tube videos when she's doing her thing..

    If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

        Roku ROCKS!

        Woot.com (one deal per day) has them right now for $59 + $5 shipping (refurb): http://woot.com/ -- I've purchased a number of times from Woot and haven't had any problems. Plus their write-ups can be pretty darn entertaining.
