Mindy Mylrea from www.jumpincfitness.com has an older Medicine Ball Training Video which I love. That one does not require a partner and you need only medicine balls as equipment.
FitPrime uses lighter medicine balls in several of their tapes, so does the Firm's Super Cardio, Maximum Cardio and Cardio Burn (the older tapes).

I like to incorporate the medecine ball into other workouts that don't use it. I use it as resistance for ab work (lying holding the med ball on my chest, then reaching up toward my feet with the med ball).
Michael Carson has a medecine ball workout (Called the Ooof ball workout, since it uses a specific kind of med ball). It used to be available through Collage. I've also seen a repackaged version of it on HSN (search Michael Carson ball).

Mindy's brand new CIA video, Awesome Strength, uses a medicine ball. It's a good workout, but definitely not a structured workout - it looks like chaos, because you have 3 people with totally different equipment doing similar exercises. Mindy uses a BOSU and medicine ball, another girl uses a step and dumbells, and the third girl uses tubing most of the time. They all switch between medicine balls and stability balls. It offers a lot of variety if you want to use different equipment when you work out. It also seems like a great workout to take on the road, because you could follow the girl with the tubing (and I think the only other thing she uses is a medicine ball).
