Wireless monitors are in their infancy now, but ASUS and Realtek are teaming up to make a new product series based on Wireless USB. The monitor has an integrated Wireless USB module from Realtek—a technology that’s also just barely making it mainstream—and will be able to pair with a Wireless USB Host Wire Adaptor or Wireless Host Controller Interface that’s plugged into your PC. Unless you really, really need a wireless monitor, hold out until reviews come in to see if it’s worth your money. [Yahoo]

It’s main use won’t be to connect to a “desktop” box, but rather portable devices like the iphone and digital cameras. Once this happens they will be everywhere for our convenience. Eventually the iphone with wireless monitors will replace the desktop box for the majority of tasks, until smaller chips, flexible screens, wireless projectors/holograms go mainstream. Futuristic? yes, but inevitable.
