While it is expected to become a huge market in just a few small years, 3D HDTVs are having a modest early adopter period in Europe, says retail analyst GfK.
Consumers in Europe have purchased 25,000 3D-capable TVs as of May 31st 2010, with sales expect to grow significantly with the release of a number of new devices this month.

Not if your like me and cant see 3D anyway, but if funky $100 dollar glasses and 5 boxes of goody's a day is your thing sure why not.
The better players can convert 2D into 3D...and it looks good. I went to bestbuy and we flipped through the channels...I almost ducked to avoid a volley ball at one point.

105"? Why not drop the extra $2000 to get a 200" panoramic 3D TV?
If your old TV does not support tv, either it is very old, or you cheaped out and got one with low specs. Hardly a surprise when you don't want to pay for a new TV with better specs; if you wanted that, you would not have purchased a lo-spec TV!
It really is starting to get to me how so many people are complaining that their HDTV does not support 3D...when many of these TVs are 720P, and were the cheapest TV available in the given size. You are just lucky that that POS is still working at all.
I don't buy the most expensive TVs/Monitors; but I don't get the cheapest POS available either...guess what? The only screens I have that are not 3D capable are a little 9" screen that I used with my PS2 about 5 years ago, and the screens on my laptops...I even have a couple of 3D screens in the office just because I bought quality...about 3 years ago!
