More Intel WiDi Laptops

One night my father and I was talking about displaying on our LED TV the movies I have saved on our laptop. I told him I can do it using DLNA as this is supported by both our laptop and our Samsung LED TV.

It was fine but he said he wants to see on the TV the live stream of movies on a particular website, (eg. Megaupload). I replied, okay that is possible. I will just need to hook up the laptop to the TV by HDMI cable.

He looked at me puzzled. He asked, it is not just another way of doing it 'TV Out'. I said yes, that is basically the 'TV Out' way. He was expecting more, like doing it with out the cables, less hassle. Of course, you can do it wireless with WiDi, I told him - but it is not possible with our current laptop. So..
