There was buzz last year about a cable free USB device that was essentially a four port USB hub that connects via ultra wide band to a USB dongle plugged into your PC. Well, the company is finally coming out with the device and has added a HDMI extender and a VGA extender to the lineup. Pretty impressive stuff if it works as advertised.
 
I am confused.

The link takes me to a device that extends video over cat5. Now wireless USB.
