Wisair's Wireless USB Display Adapter Set coming soon for $129

It's debatable whether wireless USB is on its way out or on its way in (for real this time), but regardless of which way it's swaying, Wisair's got some availability you should know about. The outfit's Wireless USB Display Adapter Set, which is a screen-centric variant of the kit introduced back in November, will be available this quarter in the US and Europe. Based on Wisair's WSR601 Wireless USB single chip solution, the device offers up VGA and HDMI connectivity options, supports resolutions up to 1,400 x 1,050 and is USB-IF certified. If you're struggling to understand the purpose here, the two-piece bundle enables USB-equipped PCs to stream content to TVs, monitors and projectors sans cabling, and it'll do so for just $129. Now, if only it were 1080p compatible...

this in usb 3.0, if its able to do 1080p w/audio, would be extremely useful.

How well do you think this will stream video?

well enough for (relatively) close range 1,400 x 1,050 resolution

If anyone is confused how the device pictured can hook up to a VGA or HDMI port, the actual device this discusses is detailed here http://www.wisair.com/wp-content/W-Display-Adapter.pdf (the pictured device does W-USB only)

considering how long i've been waiting for wireless usb to do something useful, this is woefully underwhelming. my native resolution is 1440x900, just under what it can handle, and i can do 1080p from my xbox 360 via video file playback. c'mon wisair, this product should've came out last year.

Anyone know if this company/product will be at CES? If so, I will look for them...I want to see this thing in action. The price is definitely right...now how 'bout the quality of the images.

Just answered my question...South 4 at CES...I will check this out. Quality is the big thing, could be quite useful for my clients if the thing is half way decent...especially for wireless presentations from an XGA projector.
