The 3D Revolution Is Here–Bring It On! I don`t think it`s a false start this time: The 3D-product plans for the coming year represent the initial salvos of the coming 3D revolution. Panasonic`s 3D demos were among the most convincing. But the best implementation I saw, unfortunately, is one that won`t be coming to market anytime soon: Sony showed its 24.5-inch 3D OLED HDTV as a technology demo only. –Melissa J. Perenson

Imagine showing off your new 3D home theater to guests, or to your kids and all their friends–that`s one pair of glasses for every member of the audience. Until 3D glasses improve (or become dirt cheap), or until someone develops a reasonably priced auto-stereoscopic display, consumers should think twice about jumping on the 3D bandwagon. –Nate Ralph
