Right off the assembly line
I have heard Wi Di interface between laptops and Smart TV's is becoming commonplace. At what point will Intel's Wi Di will be incorporated in Smartphones?

well, I must say that the Wi Di feature has changed the way we have been looking into the TV. The smart sharing feature in smart TV allows you to view the contents placed on your Hard Disk in your TV.
When it comes to implement in smartphones, I am not so sure about the same.
It is a matter of speculation - reminiscent of BD vs. HD-DVD battle - the outcome was decided by the marketing muscle rather than by the merits of the technology alone. WiDi is an Intel baby, and leading TV makers such as LG Smart TVs ad Toshiba already support the standard. I only know of Samsung TVs that have Wi Fi Direct support - I am not sure what Sony supports.I see more scope for Wi-Fi Direct over Wi-Di in the near future
Haier is the another company which is expected to put Wi di and Wi-Fi technology and accessories in their upcoming 2013 smart tv models. They are going to provide remote controls, game controllers, voice and audio headsets with other wireless devices that will definitely improve the interaction between the device and the content of the tv as well. Whereas company like LG already has Wi Di in its Cinema Screen 3D models like 47LM6700 that allows effortless interface between the laptop and tv and is one of the great features of their 3d TVs.
Yes they do. Check *www.haier.com/in/products/tv/3dled/ to get an idea. They currently have a 32" and 42" 3D TV models but there is nothing clear about the 3D technology being employed. Moreover, the availability is pretty limited. And honestly, the models are nowhere comparable to the top brands. My source regarding Wi Di was a tech news announcement that I saw on BBC which stated Haier getting ready to plunge itself in the Smart 3D TV arena and they plan to have inbuilt Wi Di in their 2013 models. Only time will tell if it's a marketing strategy or an actual fact....Haier??
Do they produce 3D Tv's?
Well, obviously they do - but somehow they have managed to stay unnoticed while the big 3D TV battle is being fought out between LG 3D TV, Samsung and Sony. At present, of all these brands mentioned, only the LG LM Series of Smart 3D TVs boasts of a Wi Di interface, while the Samsung TVs have Wi Fi Direct.Haier??

I think it's important to note that WiFi direct is used for both sharing displays as well as file sharing. Essentially, it is the WiDi feature and the SmartShare together in one. However, not all TVs with WiFi direct will use it for sharing displays and only use it for file sharing.
Just thought people should know!
LG WRman Sherlock, out!
oh, It means getting a Wi Fi Direct will be much better than getting WiDi and Smart share fature separately.
Well, technically while they are "separate" features, they are all DLNA certified (just like WiFi Direct). In addition, all LG Smart TVs are both WiDi and Smart Share capable. Oh, and I forgot to mention, WiFi Direct display sharing compatible TVs are capable of connecting to laptops with WiDi as well. Pretty much, you can view WiFi Direct as almost the same thing as WiDi and Smart Share.
LG WRman Sherlock, out!
A quick question, Has LG ever implemented this Wi Fi Direct features in any of their products?
