I just think it was a terrible mistake to not go with the 3-D televisions that can work without the glasses.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think those TVs only work for one viewer at a time. Not good for most people.

 

No actually, from what I've read, the 3-D is viewable from many different angles. The company decided to pull it out of pressure from other companies to have consensus on technology and sell their flawed $150.00 glasses.

From different angles yes, but for one viewer only (as far as I've heard). What I've read is that those TVs track your eyes and adapt the image accordingly in order to maintain the illusion of 3D.

 

I don't know, maybe that's the case. I didn't read that where I saw info on this particular model. I just feel that it's not going to be a mass market deal with expensive add in glasses.

Well it is possible to make a system with much cheaper glasses, it's the one they use in cinemas. It requires a light polarization filter, which is pretty easy to do with a projection system (just a small filter in front of the projector), and a bit more expensive for LCD/Plasmas, as the filter has to be as big as the screen.

Bottom line, the TVs would be more expensive but the glasses would be really cheap.
