Reviews of the Gefen EXT-WHDMI wireless HDMI extender

CNET Review
The Good: Stable reception with full HD resolution and generally very good quality; supports 1080p/24 high-definition video; two HDMI and one component-video input with analog audio; solid build quality.
The Bad: Expensive; minor false contouring; cannot support 1080p/60 video; no remote for manually switching between sources; limited to a 30-foot range; some gaming lag.
The Bottom Line: The professional-grade Gefen EXT-WHDMI may not quite match the quality of an actual HDMI cable, but its solid transmissions make it a viable candidate when wireless HDMI is the best option.
