WirelessHD adapter eliminates pesky wires, almost affordable

WirelessHD adapter eliminates pesky wires, almost affordable

Eager as we are to see wireless HDTV, progress is slow. Rocketfish just sped things up significantly with its wireless HD adapter, $600 worth of wireless HDMI that'll let you move 1080p video 33 feet from source to screen with nary a wire between.

This is just the beginning. This is the WirelessHD brand of cable-free 1080p magic, which only works within 33 feet — a better choice is the higher-quality and 100-foot-spanning WHDI, soon to be slipped into notebooks, projectors, TVs and receivers. The question is, can WHDI be had for less than $600? Not yet, but WHDI creator Amimon tells us that'll happen soon. Let the competition begin!

I may be a bit thick here but don't we already have HD streamers from like Western digital et al or is this something new/different?

Or just mount the little 13 oz 1080p mini-computer (CompuLab fit-PC2i ) to the back of your plasma, and use a wireless keyboard/mouse to control the streaming/wireless network HD content to the TV.

Far cheaper and more versatile.
