Tiny firewall options

I'm currently in the market for a replacement firewall, and have gone
through three commercial products with zero luck. The firewall will
replace my Cyrix P233 equivalent 64MB RAM mid-tower system with no hard
drive running m0n0wall.

After a bit of research I've come up with the following list (from
<http://www.pcengines.ch/order1.php?c=4>):

        PC Engines WRAP.1E-2 (3 LAN / 1 miniPCI / 128 MB DRAM)
        Enclosure for WRAP.1-2 (3 LAN, red)
        AC adapter 18V 0.8A euro plug
        CompactFlash card 256MB

Total price is $175.50. That is the cheapest decent tiny firewall setup
I've been able to find. It's compatible with m0n0wall, as well as a
bunch of others, and would be capable of minipci wireless should I so
desire.

So, my question: Has anyone seen anything out there that would be
cheaper with equivalent capabilities (2 LAN instead of 3 is acceptable,
as is 2 LAN plus built-in wireless instead of minipci slot)? If so,
could you shoot me a link (off-list if this is too off-topical)? Or, if
I'm way off base and need to be looking in other directions, let me
know.

Regards,
