It took a while until we managed to decipher the details, but the Spider 3.0 adapter from Area Powers Japan really is an HDMI to USB 3.0 adapter, not the opposite.

Since video is now supported over the Universal Serial Bus 3.0 SuperSpeed interface, monitors connected through that interface, instead of HDMI, DVI or VGA, have begun to appear.

We don't think there are enough of them to warrant special adapters, but Area Powers disagrees, having released an HDMI to USB 3.0 converter that ships with a DVI to HDMI adapter to boot.

Capable of a top resolution of 2048 x 1152 pixels, the adapter can send video and audio to up to six monitors at once. Speaking of which, the product can both handle individual streams and spread the same image across all six panels.

Sales of the Spider 3.0 will begin in early October 2012, for 5,480 Yen, which translates into $70 / 54 Euro.
