Need a gigabit switch and bridge

I currently have a popcorn hour networked media player and I want to connect my NAS to it. My main router is in a different room, so I need a bridge to connect the NAS to the router.

What I'm thinking is that I am going to connect my Popcorn hour via ethernet to the switch, and I'm going to connect my NAS via ethernet to the switch. I will also need a bridge connected to the switch that connects wirelessly to my router. Will this work?

Does Dlink or Linksys make a switch/bridge type device in one?
 
OP, I hope that you are aware that the Giga switch on the Bridge would Not do any thing concerning the Wireless transfer.

If you connect few Network devices to the Bridge's switch and they are Giga capable, they would exchange between them files on Giga level. But that would Not translate to any LAN traffic that is on the other side of the Wireless.
