Well I just updated my PS3 to play 3D content, now if they send me glasses and an upgrade for my TV to play 3d I'm in.
A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

I will guess they hope you want 3D bad enough to go buy a new TV and the glasses to go with it. The firmware update was after all free, how much more could they possibly give away and still make a profit.

Sony didn't give away anything. You allowed them to install the 'hook' on your PS3.

Exactly my point, they will have to do a lot more if they expect me to buy into this new technology, it will probably work on some though, particularly those with plans on buying a new display soon. In reality a pretty smart marketing bait.

I don't mind the 3D functionality being part of my next display purchase, but it's definitely not something I'm going to put a lot of emphasis on. Mainly it will be something to try out for me, but I don't expect much until a couple generations down the road. In the meantime, I'll concentrate on good 2D performance.

I'm surprised no one's asking about the 38DD sets.

I'm surprised no one's asking about the 38DD sets. I was actually wondering if the porn industry might drive this technology. Just as long as the double Ds don't poke out of the screen and half way across the room. Cause, you know, that would upset Gene.
