I don't know if I'm the only one who thinks this, but 31% acceptance of a brand new expensive technology that will follow a normal market curve (innovators, early adopters, early majority, late majority, laggards) is pretty damn good.

That's exactly what I thought. But what baffled me the most even more is the fact that only 57% said that prices are too high. Current prices for 3DTVs are ridiculously high, I would have expected a value > 90% for that question.

And when it comes to the question about 3D glasses, it would be very interesting to know the exact phrasing. For example a question like "Would it bother you having to wear glasses for watching 3D on a 3DTV?" does not say much. I for instance do not like the idea of having to wear glasses for watching 3D either, but it does not bother me so much that I would not buy a 3DTV with glasses if the price is right. Nobody likes wearing 3D glasses, but the tremendous success of 3D movies in cinemas clearly shows that people are more than willing to wear 3D glasses and even pay more money to enjoy 3D.

I understand that the fact the recently introduced 3DS does not require them makes many gamers believe that people will not accept 3DTVs that require glasses because they see that 3D without glasses is possible. But that's wrong, as word will spread that what works for a small mobile device is not necessarily the best solution for a TV or cinema.
