I'll be honest all I know about the wireless setup is that you can 
transfer from a windows machine and stream it that way.  I don't know 
the in's and out's of it at all seeing that I'm still a nub.

They do update the firmware from feedback in the forums. So if there is 
a demand for high-definition video's I would assume if the chipset is 
capable of handling it they would upgrade the firmware to use it.  This 
is a pure assumption.  I've only used SVCD's, xvid and divx avi's 
created using windows cause I *don't know* how to uncompile to raw data 
as in .dv and .mp3 and recompile into a divx compression avi in linux

Overall the only reason I've pointed that product out is because its an 
Australian "invention" and also because I saw that the firmware was 
compiled on unix which is a bit unusual I would have thought.  It might 
be C source firmware so compiled in unix would enforce the standards I 
suppose?

Anyways good product and it works anyother info have a look in the 
forums off of the zensonic main page.
