I am looking to buy some new hardware..

What I really want is a M350 Enclosure
http://www.mini-box.com/M350-universal-mini-itx-enclosure

and  a Zotac ION Motherboard (vdpau) or cheaper mini-itx with MiniPCIe
slot for a  http://www.logicsupply.com/products/bcm970012 so it will do
the graphics work :-) (anyone know a cheap places in NZ to get them
from.. there is one of the older ones on trademe for $50 at the moment
but no local supplier as far as I can find)

nicegear have the N330 but its really expensive compared to overseas..
Is there any place is NZ which sells these types of things?

(yes I know mythtv doesn't have built in support for it yet, but I got a
HVR2200 6+ months before there was even drivers for it under linux and
now it works well) (but xbmc does have support for the card now)

the problem is overseas places want to charge SOOOO much money for
sending over.. for example the case.. around $50-$70 from various places
US and $100US+ to send it to NZ..

I can't find a Nano-ITX with a MiniPCIe slot.. oh well.
