Wireless USB Box Streams Video from Laptop to TV
Posted in: Accessories and Peripherals, Today's Chili, video
Link, from Imation, is a dead-simple way to get movies off your computer and onto your TV. It consists of two parts: a USB-dongle for the computer and a receiver that hooks into your TV. The pair talk to each other wirelessly and stream whatever is on the computer’s screen over to the television.
The connection is via Wireless USB, or WUSB, and will stream video up to 720p resolution and still images up to 1080p. It also sends stereo sound, and the whole lot is piped into the TV via an included HDMI cable.
Unfortunately, the one thing Imation doesn’t want to share is the price. If this thing is under $100, it might be in with a chance. With the rumors hotly tipping a new, $99 Apple TV at next week’s Apple Event on September 1st, anything that costs more than that may as well just go home now.
