Week in Review: Wireless HDTV arrives, iPhone 3G keeps calling & more

week_072508.jpg

Try as it might, the iPhone 3G couldn't eclipse the biggest tech news of the week: The announcement from multiple electronics companies that they would support WHDI, a new standard for wireless HDTV. Beyond just getting rid of cables, the new tech would be delay-free and let you display any video from any device in your home on your big screen. We can't wait.

Still, the iPhone 3G did keep ringing us up, with stories on the fun iBeer app, some cute Japanese accessories, a robust backup power pack, and these sweet headphones that are a perfect match for the phone. Don't have an iPhone 3G yet, but desperate to get one? We've got some tips for you.
