Wireless connection of MacBook 5.1 to LCD TV

[DanSandbergUCONN]

Hi All,

So I busted the screen on my Macbook. It is an older version (model 5.1) and so the mini DVI out only transmits the video to my LCD TV, not the sound. I use a separate headphone connection to audio input for that.

I want to make it more convenient to use the laptop solely with the LCD TV. I have found wireless HDMI transmitters but they are bulky, expensive and they would only handle the video transmission not the sound. Is there a simpler way to wirelessly transmit the video and audio from the Macbook to the TV? I am comfortable (and would prefer to) completely removing the laptop screen.

Let me know if you need more information, e.g. the TV model (I actually have two I would ideally like to use). Thanks in advance.
