Wireless Hard Drive

I have been asked to buy my son a wireless external hard drive for Xmas.
Do they exist or am I being wound up?

Thanks for the quick reply, but. He doesnt use a router to use an ethernet cable and is led to beleive that a wireless HD is available, is that not so.

Thanks for all the replies. I shall contact him and unless I have misundersood his request talk himinto a straight forward USB HD.

I have now found out that it wasn't wireless but a HD connected to a router in another room that can be accessed wirelessly ie. NAS (is that right?)
He wants a 1TB one and I can pic up a
Western Digital My Book World Edition 1TB Home Network Storage for about £100. Is that one OK or are there better ones for the money. Cheers.
