While the soekris option is awesome, it is a little pricey. There is another board that is about half the price but it is still over $100. It is the PC Engines ALIX board. (http://pcengines.ch/ alix2.htm). I bought one for myself from mini-box.com and it cost me ~130 for the board, like 20 for power supply and case, and 10 for a cf card. I am putting linux on it but pfSense is a great option. So it is about 160 total. A soekris option will probably be over 200 for just the board.
Soekris has several different boards. I was just on their site before I sent the message, and you can get boards (no case) for as little as $130. You can get boards and a case for starting around $150 or $160. Power supplies are $16, and then you just need a CF card. I'm sure there are other options, and ones that are cheaper. I haven't used the others, so I can't speak to their quality or reliability.
