DisplayLink Has an Interesting Announcement

[MikeEnIke]

One that will excite many people and not want to wait for this new technology to be released. We may have wireless mouses and keyboards, but now we have wireless... Honestly think I would tell you in the teaser? Go to the news article and find out yourself.

Then, make sure to tell us what you think below.

As long as nothing interfears with the signals (ala wireless mice and keyboards) this is a fantastic idea. I hate cables, but they are soo reliable.

I also saw wireless HDMI that was running at 3.5-4gbps

I wonder if there's any kind of lag between say moving the mouse and seeing it move on screen :\

It said it was quite responsive and unbuggy, i expect they would have said something had that been the case.

Damn, this is awesome! The only cables left to get rid of are speaker cables (from computer to breakout box at least, considering they do have wifi speakers).

I think there should be a new wireless peripheral standard, non-usbwi, non-802.11, something new and fresh made exclusively for all sorts of peripherals with numerous channels to allow for pretty much anything to be run through it all at once.

Mmmmm, wireless!

What he said ^^^^

Seriously liking this wireless ftw... I wonder when wireless power will arrive?

 

[Toxcity]

I will be sticking with wires.

wireless is just not dependable enought. Wireless screen for gaming? :nono:

Clever Idea..

I don't like the idea of using wireless like this, not only is it going to have latency, but you're going to swamp the spectrum... it's like driving a big rig down a country road and until they get a better spec for UWB, it's a bad idea.

Another problem is all this USB usage, it hogs the CPU, I guess it's down to how they implement it.

It's nothing new either, vga over wireless has been around a while.
