Welcome to the forum. Others here will be better at helping with your technical issue, but I can answer these questions.
1) The BT3100 was discontinued in 2006, after a long period of "no love" from Home Depot. (HD didn't seem to understand or care about the saw, so nobody understood how it was supposed to work)l. There was no replacement version.
2) I'd say "no". You can find saws with a sliding miter table, but as for a lowish-cost, fairly accurate, flexible saw with a SMT, riving knife, built in router table, etc like the BT3K, I'd say there isn't anything else even close.
3) The BT3100's wheel was plastic. The BT3000's was metal. I *think* they are interchangeable but others can confirm/correct.
