I just read this article about how Belkin is coming out with a wireless HD distribution box allowing several sources to go to several TV's but without the wires:

I just ran Cat 5 cables all over my boat to do this (along with a very expensive piece of equipment called an AVAtrix by Audio Authority) and I will tell you that is *not* an easy task. It works extremely well but it ain't easy.

If you want HD to your sets, someone should look into this do dad and see if it really works.
 
Looks cool, if I hadn't already wired my apt with DVI cables 6 years ago I would look into it. My boat is... well... let's say I don't have a need at the moment. But by the time my portfolio recovers, it could be a possibility. from the article, looks like many companies have this in the works. Should get interesting.
