This isn't completely a new idea... the Line 6 Relay wireless guitar system
is also digital with non analog compression (except for the input into the
transmitter and the output from the receiver), but it doesn't use wireless
ethernet. Not sure how this Jack thing would connect to a guitar amplifier,
though, you'd still need a receiver and DAC on the other end to send a
signal into an amp. I guess you could use a computer or something in
between.
