The bug for the channel says:


Fox Soccer Plus HD

so if they ever go 3D, will it say:

"Fox Soccer Plus HD 3D"

in the bug on the SD channel ? :D

This does raise some interesting questions regarding Dish and 3D and the World Cup, etc.

Unless I have missed something, Scott has been pretty quiet about all of this.

There is nothing to talk about on it.

I'm surprised - I thought they would have some plans to announce - especially after all of Direct's hoopla at the CES.

Broadcasting 3D is no different then broadcasting any other channel. Dish is 3D ready now, and could flip a 3D channel on in a heartbeat if they have the content available. And from what I understand the content will be made available to DISH and DIRECTV at the same time.

Great! Thanks Scott! I want to see some of this before I make a major investment - I sure don't want to part with some major $ only to be disappointed.

I'm pretty sure that you will need a special 3D TV to see the 3D - you just will not need anything different from Dish Network...

Vizio is coming out with an LCD with Led and 3d this fall.

As is Sony, their 2010 XBR's will be 3D ready; the Sonystyle store near me (Plaza at King of Prussia) had 'em on demo last time I was there... but I didn't feel like waiting to check it out.

You now whats cool about 3D? The headaches.

I watched Avatar for 2 hours and 42 minutes in 'Real D 3D' and did not get a headache at all.......
