I have a buffalo Ethernet one that works perfectly. the ethernet plugs into the xbox, and then it has a power cord for an outlet. let me find a picture or something and I'll come back

ahh, but my model and router are no where near the tv, so i cant run a cord. thats why i needed the reciever to get the signal my linksys router puts out.

Best freakin' case ever for the iPod touch (first gen). Picked it up for 40 AUS here (only place that sells 'em is the Chaddy Apple store to my knoweldge), but it's on sale for half price on their official site (at 15 US, shipping outside of the US is nuts though, 50 bucks!).

Couldn't find a picture of the white version's back, so posted black. It's like a silicon/rubber/jelly material, that doesn't catch any lint/dust particles (well, it does like everything but it comes right off), and it has awesome protection from falls. Oh, and it feels awesome xD

Here you go!

Sniped on ebay and had a coupon. These used to be worth around $500, now going rate is $300, but I got my set for $150. They are no longer produced, but they are rare and so hard to get! Replaced by the wired Logitech Z-5500, these have lower wattage, but more than enough for me.They have wireless rear speakers so they are real nice for big rooms. I especially love the old school control box and the classic high end look of the speakers and sub. My friend has the Z-5500, so I hope to do a comparison. Now I just need a 5.1 card for my MBP and I have a nice set up.

Here is the Z-5500 if you guys are interested - these are at $227 on amazon.

those are sweet, I like how they have two optical inputs, you dont need to get a 5.1 card for you MB because you can just use a mini toslink to toslink cable off monoprice.com to get 5.1 because the headphone jack is digital also. I know its been discussed somewhere in the threads. Plus I like the looks of the receiver box compared to the z5500's its just so tall. I like the low profile

The Buffalo reciever is wireless..the ethernet plugs into your Xbox, and then ...well actually first you have to plug the ethernet into your laptop, and then connect the router to the airstation, THEN you connect the ethernet wire to the xbox 360, and the other end to the airstation. and its a wireless connection, but the xbox says its "wired" because its using a ethernet port.

Put $10 down on it and I got my code to get into the public beta :D. However, this weekend I'll be picking up:
