Having seen more than dozen 3-D demonstration setups in stores, I have found nearly all suffer from either improper setup- often they don't even work- or limited viewing content. Since I don't watch much in the way of cartoons or animation, seeing those in 3-D was not helpful, and that was the most common thing being shown. A few "nature" films were sort of interesting, but it was more of a gimick than a real enhancement to viewing. I'd like to watch some sporting events in 3-D to see what it can do for them, but it would have to real events, not some special demonstration footage. So, while so far I feel no urge to go 3-D, these are early days. There may be content that really makes it worthwhile, but I haven't seen it yet.
