    And an S-Video Cable.

    There is no way to do it with wifi/bluetooth that I know of.

    I agree with Lethal Bullet above.

    If you don't want to use a cable the only solution I can think of is to use a pair of video senders.

    Hook one up to your TV or Projector and the other to the TV-Out/S-Video socket on your laptop.
    I have successfully used this setup for watching movies but it's not really suitable if you just want to hook up a monitor with VGA or DVI inputs to give you a bigger or extra screen while working on the laptop.

    Any video senders will work if you have an S-Video socket and cable for laptop.
    If not you would need a VGA to TV adapter or converter (depending on the video card in laptop).

    Note: The products in these links are just examples, I'm not specifically recommending those adapters.
