Several of the new Toshiba laptops are able to put their screen content to a Wifi enable TV. Might any one know how or if this can be done with Thinkpads?

Are you talking about Intel Wireless Display? Then yes, there is. My T420s supports it.

Here's the system requirements.

Do T420 models support this be default or does something have to be added to them?

Are there any other Thinkpads that support WiDi other than the T420s?

Any computer that meets the requirements listed on that requirements page support WiDi.
