    I purchased my m17xr3 with the WirelessHD transmistter, however I did not purchase the whole kit cause I wanted to bring cost down at the time.

    Is there a XWH200 alternative to which I can buy?

    Intel Wireless Display

    There are 2 WiDi receivers listed on the right side.

    Not entirely sure this is what you are looking for, not very familiar with the XWH200. But if you have an intel wireless card that supports WiDi (Such as the 6300) you should be able to buy one of these receivers. Unfortunately the Killer-N doesnt do it.

    Well, since I have the 3D model - WiDi will not work :/

    So I would have no choice to use the 60 Ghz wireless.

    Ah, I didnt catch that.

    I just did a brief search and it seems the XWH200 is the least expensive option, but again I only searched briefly.
