HD television is on the horizon but it’s currently being held down by messy cables. There are two technologies competing to become standard but they’re not quite ready for prime time.

Wireless HDMI (high definition multimedia interface) has come a long way and is actually expected to hit the market in September but the price tag is expected to be a bit high.

Dell and Lenovo have just announced the first laptops with embedded Certified Wireless USB chips. This means that all peripherals connected to a USB hub will tie in to your laptop without the use of a cable.
