Saw this earlier, found it rather interesting, albeit pricey...

Apparently, it's got a 400mhz processor running embeded Linux, and you
can run BT client and a firewall (among other things) to free-up CPU
resources on your PC.

If it had dual ethernet ports, and you could install dhcpd/dhclient,
dnsmasq, iptables, and so on... this would be a really cool NAT
router/firewall! =/
