    Is there something I could buy for my laptop that would work like the new widi laptops?

    Maybe some sort of device that plugs into my HDMI output, or USB,, that connects to the HDMI in on a TV?

    basically something wire free for a laptop to HD TV?

    I know the newer laptops come with them built in, but is there anything else for us less fortunate laptop owners ha?

    I don't think it has been released yet. I am not really sure.
