    There are some new ones around, like the Sonos and teh Creative one.

    I heard some rumours that some of them can be modded to use AVI.

    Or, just use a wireless tv/audio sender, pick em up from maplins.

    might be better to get a wired box (quite a few do them) then get a wireless 'game adapter' (access point) to make it wireless

    Nad Netcap will do it but I'm not sure of it's availability.

    Roku photobridge does images and movies but not sure if it supports DivX.
