Belkin to Release Wireless HD Product in CES
Posted by Jesus Diaz at 6:35 AM on November 27, 2007
We have received obligatorily blurry camera phone shots of an unidentified wireless object by Belkin. According to the guy/girl/chipmunk ninja who sent it, this black box is some kind of High Definition video transmission thingie:
Found this new device, taken straight from within Belkin Skunk works (booyah!). Don't know much about it, but it's a wireless HD product--supposedly one out of a line of new media extending products that Belkin's working on... Rumoured to be shown at CES. Probably costs around $700 or $800.
So there you have it. Black box. Wireless. Crystal-clear high definition video to be shown at CES. Unlike the stupid shots. When are all these wannabe spies gonna get some actual good camera phones. [Thanks Abe]

$700 is a lot of money to give a company who manufactures their products to die right after the warranty expires.
A couple years ago I had bought a Belkin wireless G router and 2 wireless G USB adapters. All 3 died after a year. The adapters died within days of each other and the router died 2 months after.

700-800 bucks?!?! Seems a bit high for a set top box or streamer...

Can't say the same thing though. I bought a Belkin wired router/firewall 4 or 5 yrs ago. Still works perfectly fine. Can't say I know how to port forward on the damn thing but hey as long as it still works i ain't complaining.

Funny this is pictured above a HD-DVD player. Downloads will win the war between HD-DVD and Blu-Ray. But $700 is way too much for the privilidge of streaming content. Unless it is a set top box with a hard drive and an intuitive UI that lets you store HD content ala TiVo.
