The whole purpose of DVI and HDMI is to carry uncompressed and copy-protected video to a monitor, no? The essence of this new proposed standard is to provide a wireless version of HDMI, is my take, where UWB techniques are perfectly adequate to provide a wireless version of IEEE 1394. In both cases, the range limits are identical.
