Thanks for all of your inputs to my original question. I just decided (and the wife agreed - lol) to get the WD Live unit http://www.amazon.com/Western-Digital-Streaming-Media-Player/dp/B005KOZNBW/r ef=dp_ob_title_ce
Note that this one is the newer one that has 7000 in the model number. It has no HD, but you can connect a USB 2 drive to it. Although I will be streaming over wired gigabit from my pc. I recently bought a Linksys E42000 router and just noticed today that it has a media server on it. I have to research a little more, but it appears that I can only stream media from a drive attached to the router. But either way, I cannot get it to my TV as it is not networkable. So I will still be getting the WD Live.
