Today appears to be a Galaxy day. However, this next prototype is really cool. [H]ard|OCP lets us know that Galaxy is announcing that they are working on adding the Wireless Home Digital Interface (WHDI) to some of their graphics cards. WHDI delivers high-definition video connectivity without the use of any wires. Instead, WHDI uses the 5GHz unlicensed band to deliver video data rates of up to 3 Gbps. This will allow uncompressed 1080p to be delivered wirelessly. Imagine having a PC and having your desktop streamed wirelessly anywhere in the house.

From the [H]ard|OCP article:
While we cannot discuss what specific Galaxy card(s) you will find WHDI technology on, Galaxy has really good things to say about its testing experiences with WHDI.

This type of product could turn your TV in any room into a Blu-ray player, or mirror your desktop to provide easy viewing to anyone that you wanted to share it with locally.
