I've played back 1080i stuff on my core duo mini directly to a 1280x1024
DVI monitor over 802.11g (ok don't laugh, I just haven't strung wire yet) 
My cable company compresses the hell out of the signal, so it's /almost/
low enough bandwidth for the 802.11g.

What I'm saying is that it stuttered quite a bit, but I'm pretty sure it
was the network.  I'll try testing it out with a wired connection and get
back to you.
