There's No Such Thing as 'Wireless HDMI'

An anonymous reader writes "CE Pro magazine interviewed Steve Venuti and Les Chard of HDMI Licensing, LLC to get a preview of all things HDMI at CES. The duo addressed some of the more controversial issues surrounding HDMI, including 'Wireless HDMI' (There's no such thing); Consumer Electronics Control (There will be interoperability); competitor DisplayPort (No traction in CE); and the complications of HDMI ('It is not an HDMI problem. It's a digital issue.')"

Amazing how big CES has gotten in the last 7 years. Now it's the center of the universe. Don't forget to mention DVR for OCAP.

Eventually the digital signal will be sent into my analog TV via the tuner-box that the government is giving me a $40 coupon for.

So the government can't afford universal health care but apparently they can afford to subsidize the purchase of new TV equipment? Geez..

Republicans call their states 'red' and now they are providing social subsidies for TVs. Guess they really are a bunch of communists. 2008 election - thank God it's not Bush.

To be fair now, that's like being upset that someone who says they can't afford to buy you car goes and buys someone else a pair of slippers. $40 doesn't pay for a lot of health care.

Not by itself, but combine this with the removal of a large number of other wasteful programs as well as the trillions on a fake war, and you've more than covered the costs of a universal health care program.

Of course now that Bush has created the biggest debt of any country in all of history, any progressive programs are near impossible.
