there is - it's called money. basically almost all TV manufacturers were losing consumers. really there's not that many that didn't get HDTV in the last 4-5 years. so they used almost 50 year old IMAX technology to sell their TVs - it's cheapest way to use already existing and well known tech than design your own from scratch.
while all manufacturers were pushing their "3D" like it was second coming of jesus on a mutated hamster Sharp was creating completely new technology that would make glass-free 3D possible. more than 2 years ago they showed first glass-free TV, but at the time they were too expensive(25-30k if i remember for 50inch TV). now since they're affordable Sharp will start manufacturing and selling their glass-free 3D TVs in first half of 2011.
i love all sony fans bashing 3DS talking that's it's impossible on normal TVs(or that 3DS won't have any effect on consumers when they will be jumping on 3D TV bandwagon since i think it will be a definitive thing that will push mainstream into 3D TV and they won't be looking for 3D TVs sony is that desperate to promote) while it was designed for TVs in the first place - Nintendo just worked with Sharp to bring it to handhelds.
