WishListr.com - Wish Lists Web 2.0 Style
There's a multitude of "wish list" services out there on the web today, but I have to admit, none of them that I've used have been quite a slick as Wishlistr.com.

Single Page Ajax Store
HiDefDvd.com is a new ecommerce site that is implemented as a single-page Ajax application.
