Need I-Appliance Recommendation

I need to find an inexpensive, fast booting, easy-to-use internet appliance for my vacation home (needs to be simple to kep the learning curve down for renters). We have WiFi, so anything that using a using a wireless USB adapter or wireless card would probably do the trick.

I was thinking the best thing might be something like WebTV, but all of those seem to be proprietary. Second choice would be something portable (though theft could conceivably be a problem.) An Audrey would work, I suppose, but I lack a good work space for the tradional keyboard/monitor/cpu arrangements.

Any recommendations appreciated.

If you lack the space for monitor/keyboard then what types of internet service do you hope to provide on this box?

Sounds like you're looking to create a kiosk of some sort, just not sure how helpful any internet service can be without a keyboard.
