Philips introduces new wireless HDMI kit

Ever wanted to connect a video component to a monitor or a projector  
on the other side of the room but didn't want to run an expensive,  
unsightly HDMI cable to it? Well, Philips has introduced a set of  
wireless HDMI "cables" that will allegedly hit stores midyear, with a  
$300 price tag. I know it sounds a little contradictory to call  
cables wireless, but hey, I don't write the press releases or name  
the products.

I guess the point is in order to go the wireless HDMI route you will  
to connect a transceiver to both your video source and monitor,  
whether it's a TV or a projector. Unfortunately, the transceivers  
will require power, so you'll need to plug them into an outlet. They  
are HDCP-compliant.
