Actually saw a 3DTV today.

Unrelated, anyone see the Sharp Quattron? It actually adds a lot of color to the picture and makes it look way better. Why aren't they focusing on that instead of this 3D stuff? Comparison with RGB on the left and RGBY on the right:

Now I want to get a new TV, even though we just got this huge one like 4 months ago.

Because its advertising is much more dull: phrases like "crisp colors" and "high contrast", which for modern displays I believe are specs just tacked onto every box, and "we finally have yellow"; compared to the fancy appearance 3D has.

I'm not too sure how significant the actual effect is for that kind of screen, either. Camera photographs of screens tend to be inaccurate simulation of how a human eye would perceive the same image, so I feel like the contrast would be much less noticeable in real life. And yellow isn't too popular of a color.

Yellow's my favorite color.

Apparently, 3D effects are not very good as in quality. Always come out blury n unclear. Plus, you get eye pains from watching too long. I would not want to have Advil next to me every time I watch 3D television. And... Isnt TV blinding enough? :|

The 3d Tvs that don't require glasses use a special screen with tiny slits that direct a different image to each eye to make it 3D, that being said, you have to sit directly in front of the screen at a perpendicular angle or it will turn out a blurry mess because the images are being directed at a different angle.
