i think the general consensus on this board is that 3D is a gimmick. some gets ill even just thinking of having to put on those geeky glasses. the word out in the streets is that all of the japanese companies are bleeding money badly. they are panicking and don't know what to do. they are running around like chickens with their heads cut off, clutching at any straw that they think will make them money. so now they are trying to promote 3D with the hopes that people will line up to buy multi-thousand dollar players and new displays to watch Pirahna - 3D (the only 3D movie announced so far this year).
but between now till end this year, will you buy a new TV, a new receiver, a new surround pre/pro, a new blu-ray player that is only 1.3ver HDMI and non 3D capable?
please share with us your thoughts. TIA!
