WirelessHD legal in the UK from Friday

We've been promised wireless HDMI for years now and frankly, we're getting impatient. This is especially infuriating for tech journalists who attend CES each year to see an amazing array of wireless devices, only for them to never see the light of day. This year is different though, because right from the start, Panasonic and Sony both promised wireless HD transmission on their flagship TVs. ?

There's a slight difference between the two: Sony has an LED backlit model, the ZX1, and Panasonic has a super-awesome, whisper-thin plasma, the Z1. Panasonic's is the most exciting, because it promised full 1080p, through the WirelessHD standard, whereas Sony is only delivering 1080i with a proprietary media box. With excitement coursing through our veins, we dropped an email to Panasonic and asked if we could borrow one. Yes, we were told, but there's a delay because WirelessHD models aren't yet legal in the UK and they obviously can't send them out until they are.
