Stream Internet to TV
Here the situation. We have a phone system used for a call center. We have the ability to use a wallboard to show phone stats for call queues. Currently we have 4 departments that we would like to setup with a wallboard using ~50 LED or LCD displays. The wallboard uses Microsoft Silverlight to run. How can we do this the most efficient way possible?
We were looking at a thinclient with Microsoft OS or using computer for each display but prefer something smaller, easier and cheaper. We've looked at Smart TV's but they dont seem to do web browsing with silverlight or browsing period really. We also looked at the apple TV and Roku player. We want to use wireless connection if at all possible. Please let me know if you have recommendations.
BTW...we access the wallboard by IP address through the web browser. Works with IE and Firefox.
Thank you,

Depending on your range, there are the "Intel Wireless Display" notebooks which are designed to display a screen onto an HD display wirelessly. I personally looked into getting one of these when the technology was brand new and it was very difficult to find exactly what was needed to use this feature. You would hower need a notebook equipped for it and a wireless receiver that hooks into the display. The notebooks that support this are generally mid to high end and therefore not the cheapest on the market, and the wireless receivers are in the $90 range, so this is not the cheapest solution and I don't know how reliable it is.
HDMI cable would be your best bet, you can have relatively long cable runs if needed, but it would probably be ideal if you installed whatever pc you wanted to use near the display. A cheap wireless keyboard / touchpad could be used to control it if needed.
