Honestly, I see the appeal of these units, but I plan on going a different direction.

I plan on buying THIS for my purposes of playing MP3's on my home stereo off my computer.

Yes, yes, I know I'm going to get harpooned for this opinion, but it's the best one for me.

*remember that this is in conjunction with my ATI AIW Radeon, so I'm using it with video out*

a) cheap option - $88 < $300

b) video/audio vs audio

c) not looking for highest quality sound
I'm either going to be playing dance music for a party or watching old Simpsons clips that I captured and compressed into wmv, so either way the sound won't need to be it's clearest or the source is already degraded.

d) control & usability - with the video sender and this, which I already have, I'll still be able to control my PC from any TV in the house. I can be sitting on my couch in front of the big screen TV and control Winamp, *ahem* use Napster (for the time being) *ahem*, and surf the net.

e) size & mobility - I can move the little receiver into the kitchen and hook it up to my stereo while I'm cooking (which I do alot). I could also hook it up to my roommate's TV and help him sort out our LAN problems without running between rooms.

If anyone sees why this is not a good option at all, let me know, because it sure looks great to me!
