They've got a Kodak Theater HD Player for $50 plus $5 shipping today.

I'm tempted, but not sure if I'd use it much. This black box hooks up to your HDTV and stereo system and also connects by cable or wifi to the internet and your network/PC so you can get internet radio stations on your stereo system. You can view media content located on your PC on your tv. You can watch YouTube videos on your tv with better quality than most other black boxes will let you. You can play your iTunes library through your stereo.

If you have an external drive filled with content, you can just plug that USB cable directly into this box and access all the media directly to put it in your tv and/or stereo. No need to turn on a PC.

It doesn't play Netflix on demand.

It will accept memory cards full of pictures, so you can have a slide show on the big screen, and transfer them to your PC for storage.

It gets really good reviews on ease of use and the remote is very highly rated.

So I'm not sure how much I'd use all this stuff, but it does it all well, according to the reviews, and is a fantastic price.

Hmm.

WTF? Two knives for $149? I guess if you're a professional. But I can't imagine any home use that warrants knives that expensive.

We've got serrated knives we bought at a state fair for $20 20 years ago. They still work great.
