Wireless HDMI coming from Philips, but it’s not cheap

With televisions getting thinner and lighter, hanging a television on the wall gets easier. However, there is still the aesthetic issue of cabling. Wireless HDMI technology is finally coming to homes in Germany this month. The Philips Wireless HDMI Link will be a two part system: one transmitter that hooks up to your components to send up to 1080p video and a small receiver box that connects to the television.

What’s this miracle of modern technology cost? $29.95? Nope, that price isn’t even close. Try approximately $850. The maximum distance between the receiver and transmitter is 25 meters. No word on when the Wireless HDMI Link will be available in the United States.
