widi ... does the laptop need a transmitter?

I'm shopping online for a widi capable laptop. From intel it looks like all I need are three things:

the right processor

the right wireless card

and an adapter/receiver for my flatscreen tv

however building an alienware laptop on the Dell site they have an additional $50 transmitter option as required for widi?? Is a separate transmitter really needed or does the widi stream go out the intel wireless card??

thanks,

dave

The laptop needs Intel Core i3/i5/i7, Intel HD graphics and the Intel Centrino WiFi N 1000 or 6000 series card. No other hardware is required.
