“Cables To Go” was awarded a CES Innovations Award last week for their upcoming wireless VGA product – the TruLink Wireless VGA with integrated audio.

As the name implies, the TruLink Wireless VGA with Integrated Audio allows you to wirelessly display video and audio content from a computer to a remote monitor, project, or television set up to 30 feet away.

Cables To Go also offers a variety of wired and wireless cable solutions including a 4 port wireless USB hub, wireless USB to VGA adapters, and a standalone wireless VGA device adapter.

If you’re looking to eliminate the HDMI cables leading up to your flat panel display, then you’ll want to check out the newly announced Philips Electronics Wireless HDTV Link (model SWW1800/27).

With the Wireless HDTV Link, you’ll be able to transmit full 1080p HD video wirelessly at up to distances of 75 feet without any signal loss or degradation. The HD signal is also never compressed during the wireless transmission – ensuring that all attributes are transmitted between the source to the destination.

Finally, the Wireless HDTV Link also acts as an AV switch – providing four connections in the form of two digital HDMI connections and two component connections.

Now comes the bad news. At $799, the Wireless HDTV Link isn’t cheap at all so unless you absolutely need to have wireless HDMI technology, you might want to wait a bit until the prices fall down to Earth a bit. The Wireless HDTV Link is available for purchase at Amazon.com and Dell.com. It will also be sold at Sam’s club, samsclub.com, and Costco.com beginning next month.

Sony’s new LocationPorter device allows users to wirelessly stream video feeds from a device such as a camcorder to a remote location using the Internet as a transport medium.Strap the LocationPorter around your shoulder and connect to the Internet via LAN or a 3G connection. The video feed will then be encoded in H.264 MPEG-4 format and streamed over the net to the remote destination.

According to OhGizmo, a single 3G connection will allow the LocationPorter to stream video at 352 x 240 with a frame rate of 5 to 15 fps (64 to 160kbps). You can even connect a second 3G connection which will increase the video quality to 320kbps. Connect the LocationPorter to  LAN connection and the video will be streamed at upwards of 30 fps.

With the LocationPorter device strapped on your shoulder, you’ll never need something like the “Eyewitness News Van” to report in from the field. Heck.. one of these would have been handy for covering CES 2009.

HDMI is good.. but let’s face it.. wouldn’t it be awesome if we could just simply eradicate any wires at all in our home theater systems? Well that dream is pretty much a reality folks thanks to companies like AMIMON who are working on wireless high definition technologies. AMIMON’s technology is called WHDI and they recently partnered up with Sharp to include their technology in Sharp’s X-Series of LCD TVs.

AMIMON WHDI technology is capable of delivering wireless uncompressed HDTV at ranges of over 100 feet and through multiple walls. Sharp’s implementation of WHDI technology allows their X-Series to separate the tuner from the display. The tuner can now be connected to the display either via a traditional cable or via a wireless video transmitter. The new sets will go on sale first in Japan. The only downside thus far? The added expensive in having WHDI – about 800 dollars on top of the cost of the Sharp HDTV set. Ouch.

You just got yourself a beautiful new flat panel HDTV set and you want to put it up on your wall. One small problem – there’s no convenient way for you to hide those unsightly wires connecting your home theater system to your television set. That’s where the promise of Belkin’s upcoming FlyWire device comes in. It’s a 5GHz wireless transmitter/receiver solution designed to transmit uncompressed 1080p True Cinema signals from your video source straight to display.
