Oh, I'm sorry: I misunderstood. You want a physical hardware device. Sorry
about that.

Take care,

Hmm, no it didn't come up in my research.  From looking at the website, it's
a protocol to extend X-windows over the network.  Is there hardware
involved?

The closest I've come thus far is a Media player such as the Zensonic Z500.
It's typical in that it supports the wireless ethernet stuff but unique in
that it supports playing media from servers via upnp which I gather is fully
supported under Linux.  The problem I saw from reading the manual though is
the file navigation is all menu driven and I doubt that would be speech
friendly.
