I *HATE* 3D glasses and so should you

Yeah, I believe the 3DS is an excellent step in the right direction, but I'm not ready to declare the end all solution (yet).  I think both have their major flaws.  Neither situation, watching Avatar with glasses or watching Avatar on a 3.5" screen, is really the better solution.

The key difference is that the 3DS is moving in the correct direction: one that doesn't need glasses.

It's also one that only allows a single viewer, so it's a step in the correct direction in one regard, a step backwards in another.

It's basically a parallel tech with its own pros and cons, better for the single user consumption, but not for a real home theater.

Right now it only allows a single viewer but advances can be made.

If we steer our 3D technology to be dependent on glasses, we're always going to be dependent on the glasses.  If we steer our technology towards not using glasses, we'll find new solutions without glasses.  It's not something we can do right now and it's something I doubt we'll do soon, but it's still the better direction.
