The Linksys WMCE54AG Media Center Extender

Linksys Dual-Band Wireless A/G Media Center Extender WMCE54AG

They first showed these off way back at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas back in January (which seems like a million years ago now), but the very first Windows Media Center Extender, which is a digital media adapter for streaming audio and video from a Media Center PC has just turned up online. The WMCE54AG is available for pre-order at Buy.com, and while at $250 it's a little pricier than we'd hoped it'd be, a Media Center Extender is pretty much the only game in town if you want to watch TV shows you've recorded on your Media Center PC in other rooms of your house (Microsoft puts a little shell around the files so that they aren't just regular WMVs).
