These days you can spend less than $50 (well, $49.99+tax) and get a Belkin F5D7230-4 at thesourcecc.com (formerly RadioShack) which also runs linux (though most versions of it only have 2MB flash unlike the WRTs which have 4 or 8, so openwrt probably won't work on it). More information on the router at: http://wiki.openwrt.org/F5D7230 http://www.seattlewireless.net/index.cgi/Belkin_20F5D7230_2d4 http://www.thesourcecc.com/estore/Product.aspx?product=2513279 Even if you don't want to hack it, it still makes a decent, inexpensive router.
