We've been working with Ubicom, a fabless semiconductor manufacturer recently.  They supply CE manufacturers with components for network and media devices.

Tonight we finally got DLNA working for them.  I said I thought we might be able to sell some of the devices.  

Here's The Plan:

A small device that plugs into a power outlet.  Not much bigger than an AC/DC transformer.  It has audio out jacks, maybe RCA, maybe 1/8" stereo.  It shows up in MC under Playing Now as a device you can drop media on.  It doesn't do video.

The price would be under $100.  Maybe significantly under.

We're in the early stages of producing these now.  

We received our first shipment today. (January 4, 2011).

Please see our wiki for details and how to order.

I'd have thought you'd need a 3.5mm stereo if this was going to work.
Wireless would also be pretty essential.

Strikes me as a little limited though. I would want a complete device which allows me to browse the library, skip etc. etc, which as far as I can see this doesn't :)
(Current devices for this are actually original Xboxes using XBMC, with some hardware mods)

datdude:
Sounds intriguing.  So what would it actually do?

JimH:
Play your music to a receiver anywhere in your home.

I was tempted to buy an Airport Express once for this exact feature....When paired with something like this - you don't even need the reciever (would make Matt happy!)
