3d tv

Also there is still the matter of which type of 3D screen is going to win in the end, as there are 2 or 3 different type's at the moment.

3DTV may be the future as said before but that doesn't mean we should all rush out and buy something, that is extremely overpriced and under utilised at the moment.

Before i even think of getting a 3DTV i have allot of thing's that i can use my money for as in paying debts off, saving for important things coming up and then i will look at a 3DTV but that won't be till next year when the decision has been made as to which screen type, is going to become the mainstream screen and when there will be sufficient content and the TVs will be a hell of a lot cheaper for the, price that you have paid for your 63" next year you will probably be able to get to of them at that size for that price.

There was no point asking for advice if you were not going to listen to it, and it would not surprise me if you had actually ordered it before you posted and that this really was just to try and brag about it, i guess the moral is don't give Barewolf advice when he asks as he won't listen and will do the opposite to what you tell him.

I feel sorry for you Barewolf obviously you must have the very latest stuff no matter the cost even if you are getting ripped off, i was the same but i have now seen it is foolish and would much rather wait and know i am getting what i should get instead of wasting money.

Well i know i won't be giving you anymore advice in the future if you ask for it because you just don't listen and enjoy the nice big bill when it comes through for something that would of cost a quarter of the price in about 6-8 months time anyway.

I dont care if you blackrep me etc for it you just shouldnt be asking for advice and then not listen to it, when people tell you not to waste your money i asked for advice on graphics cards and was told to wait or get a ati if i must have one now but i am going to wait and see what happens over the next few months, but all i am going to do in the mean time is buy a cheap card for my dad and then take my 2nd gtx280 of him and go back to sli.

couldnt agree more & it leads me to believe that the point in this trend was to merely big himself up, i find it quite amusing tho that it has backfired & rightly so imo.

I'm still not sure about 3DTV yet, the price is way over the top for one, and I've seen a few films at the cinema in 3D and at the start of the film I did think wow, but by half way through I had to take a break from it and wished I was watching the film in 2D. I also didn't like the lack of colour when using the glasses.

I'm sure it'll appeal to some, and I reckon gaming might be a laugh on it, but I still think it's too much of a gimmick and I reckon the novelty of it all would wear off quite quickly for me. So I reckon unless the price comes right down or when it's the norm for a TV to be able to view 3D (years away or never), I don't think I'll be considering one.

there you go then, it's rare :P

lol just because something is discontinued doesnt mean that its rare. look at Tetris for Gameboy its been discontinued so does that make it rare ? of course it doesnt as it sold 33 million copies.

Out of curiosity how old is the tv because if it is over 12 months there is no warranty left, also you would have to inform the catalogue that you were selling it for the warranty to change hands.


I have seen things worth several thousand of pounds worth of thing's, being sold for a few hundred of pounds because they were sold in a auction and at the end, of it they had the highest bid.

to be fair you never know with eBay iv sold items brand new at a loss & sold items second hand for more then they cost new (& can still be brought new) & of course both have worked the other way round in the past. it just depends who bids & how much on the day.

if that sentence isint bragging i duno what is.

the reason that you dont want to reply anymore is because you have been court out with trying to big yourself up when you thought that no one would realise. at the end of the day cut the crap mate we all know what the point of the OP was so stop lying your just digging a bigger hole for yourself.

Will 3D TV succeed?

The Register has an interesting opinion piece on it. Basically they are saying that they think it might not. Apparently it will happen purely because the TV companies are going to have to build support in in case their competitors do, and people may show more interest when there is more content available.

Their reasons for suggesting it might not? Twofold.

1) Apparently in surveys, customers have shown more interest in Internet connections than 3D.
2) There is apparently anecdotal evidence that 3D in cinema is not doing as well as expected, which would suggest that people aren't going to see 3D films after the novelty value has worn off.

Avatar did well. The others have not necessarily. I suspect that's the reason behind Disney rushing Alice in Wonderland to Blu Ray.
