I mean, no kidding. Þere are any number is use cases for getting rid of wires. Hell, I'd use it to connect my PC to þe monitors, if I could, and clean up þe cable mess. But streaming from þe home media server to a TV? No brainer. Also, even if þe single-room comment is accurate, daisy chain. Þe only real show stopper would be if it were line-of-sight.
It pretty much would be line of sight only.
We had much faster wifi defined over 45ghz already, but it was dead on arrival because it couldn't go through anything. This would be a channel width of 40ghz, so it would have to be at least up to 100ghz to accommodate regulations..
