I think that one of the reasons that 3D has not been as successful as quickly as they had thought, was that allot of people believe that it is the same old thing as before. I hated 3D glasses, the 3D effects were poor, gave you eye strain, headaches etc.
My wife and I went to the video store and were looking to replace our aging big screen. I happened by a 3D demo and when I looked through the glasses could not believe what I saw. It took allot of convincing to get her to look but like me when she did she could not believe it either. We ended up buying a Sharp 70" (240hz) and six pairs of glasses. We had it about a month now and could not be more pleased. There are people with physical conditions which will never be able to enjoy this feature but if you believe it is the same old same old, give it a try. Everybody in the family has really enjoyed the experience. Since the prices are going down that is becoming less of an issue. Do we not remember when HDTV came out how these threads read then. This is a feature, not like HDTV which is now an institution. I believe as a feature, it will remain.[h=1][/h].
