| Too bad - a wireless entertainment center would be ideal Too bad the technology and standards bodies couldn't have developed to the point that we could have a wireless entertainment center. Speakers, STBs, HD TV, game consoles, PCs, etc all communicating over a dozen feet or less without having wires running everywhere.
Someday, maybe!!

Grand Forks Afb, ND | I'd rather see a single cable that plugs into everything for inter-communication. There's too much RF/E-M/sattelite signals flying around.
AND too much RF flying around has a propensity to conflict with other nearby wireless equipment.
I'd rather a single cable option.

Ultrawideband has a lot of promise.
Hopefully this is just a temporary setback - technology start-up a little too soon to the party and ran out of money before the market matures.
A single cable is nice, no cables for very short range is even better. HDMI is gaining market share but it is a point-to-point connection not a network. That means one still needs switch box if there are multiple sources, kind of like RS232 on steroids. An UWB wireless connection is the ideal solution for A/V networking with some form of WiFi or wired Ethernet as the backbone/home LAN connection.
