Hookup Computer to TV via wireless?

Is there a way to connect a desktop to display MPEG files on a TV via a wireless connection?

I use my desktop to record TV shows in MPEG format. I either transfer them to my laptop to watch while I'm on the road. However, I would also like to watch the shows on my home TV but would like to connect via wireless 802.x

Plenty of WiFi viewers for photos and MP3 but AFAIK none yet for mpeg video.

You might want to look at this package:

Something like the Pinnacle ShowCenter (~$250) should work if you got a wireless bridge for it. Tom's Hardware has a review. You'd probably need 802.11g to get adequate bandwidth for video.

[edited to add the g thing and the Tom's Hardware url]
