The concept of wireless display is not a new one. Many designs and devices have been built to give the ability to connect to a display without the need for long cables strung across the floor. The idea has caught on in many sectors of the market so much that both AMD and Intel have their own built-in wireless display APIs (and hardware subsystems). Most of these are built into newer mobile products, which means that if you are trying to connect a desktop or another device without WiDi (wireless display) already built in you are out of luck. Fortunately for all of us someone came up with the bright idea of combining the USB display concept with WiDi to deal with that little issue. We are taking a look at one of these today in the form of the Diamond V-Stream WPCTVPRO USB 1080p Wireless Display adapter.

The Box and Goodies -
The box that the WPCTVPRO comes in is designed to be shaped like a diamond. Which is a pretty cool design in reality and also allows for fairly easy access and even storage if you need it. The outside is fairly uninteresting with images of the WPCTVPRO and not a whole lot more.

After removing the slipcover and splitting the box open things are much more interesting. Nestled inside a foam “tray” we find the two major components of the WPCTVPRO. These are the USB adapter and the display transceiver (for lack of a better word). Opposite them is a CD-ROM that contains installation information for Windows based systems (you will probably never need this CD).
Behind the CD is a flap that conceals all of the other items that you need to get the WPCTVPRO running. Diamond has included an HDMI cable, power cord and a small quick install guide.
