The glasses for these TV's aren't like the ones in the cinemas. The ones in the cinema are simple polarised lenses. These new 3DTV's use glasses that use power, they're shutter glasses. Google it if you don't know what that is.

because in cinema they use polarized plastic glasses, which are very cheap to produce - the light polarization technique uses 2 beamers.. there are some professional TVs that can do it as well, but that technique for TVs has some draw backs like halfed vertical or horizontal resolution

first gen 3D TVs all use shutterglasses - these glasses synchronize with the TV and alternately darken (at 120Hz) one glass (they have LCDs in each glass) depending on which eye-picture the TV outputs at that time, which is why these glasses are way more expensive

I need a 32" 3D TV no one has found me a link yet:P:P

good thing that TV is only 1080€ = 934gbp here in germany, hehe (probably without glasses)

its a wait and see for me.

I'd wait for actuall content if I were you...

and if you're a PC gamer (NVIDIA) and really want to see what 3D is about, go for 3D vision... it'll cost you only 400$ screen included (plus it's great)

60£ for the glasses? O_o Heh, that's a bit pricey, but I expected the TVs to cost a bit more. Maybe we'll get one in a few years. There's not enough support yet (obviously).

most of the new tech needed for 3D is in the glasses - TVs really only need a true 120Hz mode (there were some with simple picture duplictation before - that's not true 120Hz), the ability to synchronize with the glasses over infra-red and HDMI 1.4 (for 1080p 3D). that's all pretty inexpensive tech already, but companies are obviously smart and only give their new premium sets the 3D treatment, which is why these sets enter the market at normal premium TV price

32" is too small. 40" is the smallest you can get. Went to few shops today but no one had them. So far only available online. Im really excited bout this 3D. No other console will be able to offer this.

What was the last 3D film you watched jneul?

To the people thinking that the glasses are expensive, I'm sure they're wireless shutterglasses.

I don't like the rotational polarized lenses, although they are cheap (like 50 cent) they don't fully close out the other eye's image. Place the lenses over eachother, and you'll see that they don't block out the light fully, it's still brown or blue depending on your angle and slightly translucent. Also the polaroids darken the image, as shades are wont to do.

Avatar worked because James Cameron used a really bright pallette to counteract the 30% light loss from the cheap specs.

I really want to demo some wireless shutter glasses. I hope there is 0% brightness loss, and 0% left to right eye interference

Edit: Actually just thinkin of the wireless shutter glasses now, they probably are pretty dark considering each lens is shut half of the time.
