You can do this with satellite already.
Pipe the TS stream from an HD DVB FTA source through a linux box running streamdev-server.
From my tests, I could easily transmit a 1080i broadcast (raw ts stream) over ordinary 100mbit cat5.
So for wireless, a good 802.11g router and receiver could handle the bandwidth of one channel at least.
Also, the signal that comes off the LNB through the coax is that raw HD stream. So it's definately doable. Coax can handle
at least 50mb/s, likely at lot more.
HDMI is just about content protection, not about any advancement in technology.
