Wireless is not an option. There is no standard or QoS features that will support the bitrates necessary for HDTV. It's generally accepted that something around 60 Mbs will be needed in combination with a good Quality of Service spec for video transmission. That's a couple of years out at least.

My RG6 connection at home provides me with 3 Mbs HSI cable speeds while my Cat5 network cable provides 1 Gbs between workstations. It has nothing to do with the transmission rate. More likely it's the ability to retrofit to the largest number of homes.

Since it can't network and you have no feel for what hardware and development is needed to make that feature work, how can one compare the price to the Dish box? $800 for a base and two clients is probably a conservative estimate.
