I don't know about you guys, but I'm waiting for glasses free tv's
I figure by the time 3D is worth it, they will be soon in coming. I mean what is there to do in 3D now anyway? Is there any tv shows in 3D? A few movies made in 3D, rest just tacked on, like wii motion games, lol. And a couple games also in 3D. Totally not worth it for me now.
And by the time it is, I figure we should be close to glasses free being done.
I dont' want to have to buy like 5 glasses and still be short at times, and then worry about scratching, losing, ect. Screw that noise.

Personally, I’m anticipating that 3DTV will be adopted at a similar rate to HDTV; and when you consider that the first HDTV broadcasts and sales were in the mid 1990s and 15 years later we’re almost at a 50% adoption rate, I don’t think that we will be at a point where it makes sense to buy a 3DTV for quite some time.

i always find it funny how some poeple seem to think that in like 2 years everyone will have a 3DTV
Some new tech comes along and internet bloggers think that everyone's going to run out and get it.

Personally, I think this comes from "Tech People" projecting their values onto the general public rather than paying attention to what the general public wants or how they behave. For example, most people don’t replace perfectly good TVs so their current TV has to break (or in some way become undesirable) before they replace it; and when they do replace it they’re much more likely to get the biggest TV in their price range than to pick up the newest technology. What this means is that for a new kind of TV to spread quickly it has to be remarkably popular (I suspect color TV was like this) or it has to hit a point where it is ubiquitous; and people have no choice but to buy those TVs.
