Don't liken it to TV, liken it to smellovision.
TV was/is here to stay, 3d tv will be forgotten or laughed about in 5 years time, in fact, most laugh at it now.

My thoughts are ....at the present time i dont believe its worth the money for 3D, seen as the only channel broadcast in permanet 3D is channel 201 on foxtel. Its mostly all USA collage football and a bit of tennis. I know there are 3D tvs out that you can switch a normal 2d broadcast to 3D anytime but they are around 3000 at the moment. Also getting a fair bit of ghosting watching 3D. (when i have the glasses on you see a ghost figure in the picture of characters in the distant picture). They way to fix this is to adjust the tunning of the brightness in the 3D mode, but its still visible, and is bit of a turn off for 3D at the moment. But still good to see TV in 3D tho
Your ghosting problems is that it's a active 3d tv which by next year will be old technology. Everyone will be switching to passive 3d which lg currently make, as the glasses are cheaper around 2 pairs for $10, the glasses are lighter, they don't need to be powered, and you don't have problems ghosting or the glasses flickering.
There is a 3D TV out at the moment worth about $20,000 that you dont need the glasses to wear, but who has that much to spend on Tvs

According to adelaidenow they are on the decline because it cost the tv stations too much to run a 3D channel. There are currently more 3D movies being made then 2D due to rumours that the next iPad will be 3D.Bully wrote:just recently bought a samsung 55 inch HD/3D tv.
