news 28 Posted January 9, 2010 Intel's new WiDi (Wireless Display Interface) technology will start to be bundled with various Core i5 and Core i3 notebooks later this month and it promises to address the Home Theater and Multimedia PC markets with a solution that will enable wireless connectivity of your notebook over HDMI to an HDTV. Using standard 802.11n wireless technologies for transmission of data, Intel describes the product as "a solution that requires a laptop PC based on select 2010 Intel Core processors, Intel HD Graphics, and Intel Centrino wireless with Intel MyWiFi Technology enabled. The laptop needs to have Intel Wireless Display software installed and also an adapter featuring Intel Wireless Display is required to receive the signals from the PC that display them on the TV. This adapter is connected to the TV via either HDMI or standard AV cables." What was rather refreshing about this announcement was how close the product was to retail roll-out. It's in fact shipping in a matter of weeks, bundled with select Sony, Toshiba and Dell laptops. Here we have Intel's Josh Newman demonstrating Intel WiDi technology for us. Take a look, it's definitely worth a few extra bits of your bandwidth...
