If you want to display actual wind data (and not downloaded data from a ground source) you'll need some kind of inertial nav platform that is probably still cost prohibitive for GA aircraft.
I wouldn't know how digital attitude systems could derive both wind vector and speed from airborne sensors just using attitude information?
You can quite easily get an overall wind speed by comparing TAS and GS (from GPS or DME) but that's about it?
