Cheapest settop box media player

I had an HTPC in the bed room but now need to re-purpose the HTPC as a desktop for the Mrs. I can continue to use that as a server, but need a way to watch the videos on my TV.

Should I just buy another xbox 360 (which is what I use in the living room) or are there any cheaper options?

Since a 360 can be had for sub-$200, my max budget would be $175

UPDATE
I picked up a D-link dsm-320 off of ebay for $40 shipped ,and it does exactly what I need it to do. It's not HD (480p) but is fine for a bedroom tv. The reviews are awful for it but I'm guessing that most of the issues are wifi or user error related.

Tversity + a decent network = success in 10 minutes

Oh. Well, good luck with that! (those things really don't work well at all, but maybe it'll suit your needs anyway)
