Almost got my self one but came to the conclusion that there was just not enough content for me to purchase
so I ended up getting the 55" Samsung 120hz LED with network connection. The boys came out Saturday and mounted the shit out of it. I used to have a 57" Sony Back lit Projection TV that stood on the floor for 7 years. This new one is soooo sweet.

I'm thinking of buying one. Not for the 3D really, but because it's a good TV and cheaper (and fatter) than the LCD's

from what i understand 3d tvs don't use the polarized glasses we use at the cinema.
instead the home glasses have an electronic shutter in them that closes one eye, then the other at rates so fast it's not noticeable. the movie itself interlaces "right image" and "left image" at the same rate and your brain melds the two into a 3d effect
not sure what the effect is, if any, on the eyes---------------------------
yup! that's right
The only thing is that you are speaking in present :)
These glassed WERE battery operated, and not as exhausting as the polarized versions you get on the theater or the original red/blue paper glasses.Sony is switching to 3D tv glasses starting next month
Toshiba launched one in the beginning of this month.3d glasses is now a dead technology

so why do the home versions have shutters? does the polarized version not work? I think they just want to make more money and sell batteries

Virtually all systems involve using a pair of camera to film the original movie. The two cameras are placed beside each other at the same distance as the separation of human eyes.
This gives you two films; one for the left eye, one for the right. The next stage is in projection - there are two mechanisms widely used so the the left eye receives the information from the left film and the right eye from the right.
The two most common techniques is to use colour filters; the left film is passed through a red filter (say) and the right film passed through a green filter. Viewers have to wear special glasses with corrosponding coloured filters so the the left and right images arrive at the correct eyes.
The problem with this system is that, understandably, the colours of the film is distorted by the filters.
A more modern technique uses polarised glasses; polarised light will pass through polarised glass only if they are both polarised in the same direction, by using horizontal polarised glass in one lens of the glasses and vertical in the other, and projecting the left and right films with corrosponding polarisation the left and right information is correctly received.
The advantage of this system is that the colour information in the film isn't distorted by the 3d system, the disadvantages is that a special screen is required to maintain the polarisation and the glasses are relatively expensive.
A third system is to use shuttered glasses; these are special glasses that alternately blank out the left and right eye in synchronism with the projector which alternately projects left and right frames.
This system is rarely used for public projection, it does get used for home computer games occasionally.

i think it's still just a fad. I saw Jackass on Saturday and I wouldn't say it added much of anything to the overall movie. There was a trailer for a new movie, however, where you could tell they created the 3D in the right way to really make stuff leap out at you. I was impressed. it's going to take an approach to film making to make it immersive rather than passive, and that's only for the theater.
I don't see the point at all to home 3D unless I've got a 100+ inch screen. There are a ton of suckers out there that are going to buy sub 50" 3D tvs and think it's awesome but not realize it just looks like crap.

Have seen one of those glasses-less 3D tv's, and it wasn't all that. Blurry and hard to find the sweet spot. Maybe the tech is getting better.
Also in HK they had similar 3D tv's mounted up on the ceiling of a nearby subway playing 3D commercials, almost 3 years ago. Didn't work to well though.

how is this different than the old 3d with the separated colors?

complete waste of time, enjoy your modern day laser disc without the cool disks as a memento

As i'm working in the 3D movies industry,let me tell you that "it's a trap."
Don't buy them ,there is no good 3D movie right now,people will be mad disappointed.
And technology for 3D tv is bran new.
3D tv without glasses can be good.You got to wait a little more,to see if it's blowing up in the industry.
Other wise it's gonna end up like lazer disc.
To me right now people are gonna get bored, they are releasing too many bad 3D movies.
Porn might be the 3D savior. :)They are also starting releasing 3D projectors
I fucking hate 3D as it is today.
