Hillcrest said that the device does not require line of sight for its wireless RF-based connection, so the USB receiver can be located anywhere within 30 feet of the device, even inside a cabinet. The device can be used in conjunction with Kodak's Theatre HD Player and the Apple TV player.
No pricing details were disclosed.
