    Hi All,
    I am about to receive the following system in the next few day,and was wondering if this system will include Optimus/WiDi.
    Have been insured by Dell sales rep that these features are included,but as you can see it is not stated on my Order Confirmation.
    Can anyone please advise on same,or is it the norm for this information not to be stated on Order Confirmation.

    Yes , you have WiDi (and Optimus...). Just get the Netgear PTV2000 adapter (the new one, the old one , PTV1000 is only 720p). Get the newest drivers and WiDi software directly from Intel's site, it will be newer than the one you get with your laptop.
