Samsung this week began showcasing a new extender for Windows Media Center which looks decidedly more stylish than similar products on the market. It is called the Samsung MediaLive and to get one you’ll have to cough up around $200.

The Samsung MediaLive lets you stream either wired or wirelessly, including HD content, from a PC equipped with Windows Vista Home Premium or Windows Vista Ultimate. It is designed to be paired with most 2008-model Samsung HDTVs, though I imagine you can use it with most any teleivsion which has the correct A/V inputs and HD support.

Gefen is out today with a new extender for pushing HD quality video up to 500 meters. It is called the DVI-1500HD and you’ll find it pricing around $600.

The Gefen DVI-1500HD works via sender and receiver units connected to the source. These units allow for support of resolutions to 1080p or 1920 x 1200 for computers to be delivered up to 1640 feet. This setup is used primarily for sending signals from DVI sources.
