Parallax seems to be out of PINK modules. Has anyone tried an Avcom SimpleLan with the propeller? Cost effective too at about $30.00! Avcom site shows plug-in to a Stamp.

    There's an ethernet box using the Propeller called the YBox2. It includes a TV output, IR detector for remote control, and an ethernet interface. The code is all open source and you can download programs to the EEPROM using cURL. Do a web search for "YBox2".

    Also I might mention the PropNIC. Most code for Propeller <---> ethernet seems to be written for the ENC28J60, which is what the PropNIC is based upon. The YBox2 is also based upon the same chip. The YBox2 also includes the Propeller and other support circuitry.

    What hardware do you have already? If you already have a working Propeller setup and you just want to add network connectivity, the PropNIC would be a good choice, if you are just getting started, the YBox2 may be a good idea.

    Another option is a WIZNET module. I have a W5100 that I did some preliminary code for before I got distracted with other tasks.
