haha, 3 definitions!

So, you still need the right tv to do it, right? How is that any different from the sony tv?

We still need the details cause sony is tight lipped about how their new TVs work. But from what we know...

Sony 3D TV - takes the 3D feed and shows it in 3D to the user

Toshiba 3D TV - takes ANY 2D feed and makes it 3D for the user

I hope this isn't another case of Sony giving us more tech than we need. Although 2D to 3D conversion will be inferior, it will be more accessible and useful to the average consumer. I really hope the Sony tv didn't overshoot the market again.

The thing is, Samsung and Toshiba TVs do the exact same as the Sony TVs. We did not hear of what Samsung TVs are offering but they have been offering 3D tvs since 2007 so they should be ahead of the pack.

Toshiba surprised everyone with this annoncement as they have no prior 3D experience. Their TV can still watch the same 3D feed as sonys TV...but apperently has the ability to convert PS3, 360, DVD, Bluray...to 3D on the fly.

2d to 3d software is available but no one has been able to do it on the fly...
