    If Cox did start distributing wireless HDMI boxes, I doubt it would be a Mini Box.  The Mini Boxes are too cheap.  They'd probably only offer the feature on their high-end service, such as Contour and DVR.

    Better than a wireless cable box...is NO cable box.  Right now, the FCC is looking to remove the cable box requirement.  Instead, service providers will have to offer a free application for your SmartTV.

    Hi connolp,

    I am not aware of any plans to have a wireless mini box. Keep an eye on the "News From Cox" section of your bill for changes to the account, updates, etc.
