Hello mr. Parrish, thanks for giving me another reason to bash another article of yours
I wouldn't have commented if it were just "1920x1808", but 18080 is ridiculous

Hehe, did you guys stop feeding your proofreading monkey?

If it wasn't for the stupid glasses needed, I'd say good idea. Many people already wear glasses for vision though, what about us? Even at the movies, the 3D glasses hurt my ears and nose since I have to wear them over my regular glasses.

Until this kind of thing is fixed, they will be missing out on a lot of sales.

To support my claim!

According to the Vision Council of America, approximately 75% of adults use some sort of vision correction. About 64% of them wear eyeglasses, and about 11% wear contact lenses, either exclusively, or with glasses. Over half of all women and about 42% of men wear glasses. Similarly, more women than men, 18% and 14% respectively, wear contacts. Of those who use both contacts and eyeglasses, 62% wear contact lenses more often.

Judging by just looking at the photo of the shutter glasses, they look like they might be large enough to fit over small frame eye glasses. No?

"The company plans to go with a full frontal public display next week." Makes me look forward to 3D even more

Hmm.. I believe the correct resolution would be 1920x1080, not 1920x1808. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Wearing shuttered glasses is too much of a nuisance. People would much more easily accept Polarized shades. Many people have prescription glasses any ways and if 3D content reaches a critical threshold then I don't think people would mind carrying with them a a cool set of Oakleys (or some other favorite brand of) shades with the necessary filters.

It's sad that most of your comments are about a typo, and not about the article's contents. I guess you all need to complain about something so you can feel superior in some way?

Go get jobs ...

Do we require to stand in front of the TV just 10 inches apart? lol.

A lot of us do have jobs. Kevin Parrish also has a job. I'd imagine "Reread before submitting to the editor" would be part of it. A lot of us have been here for a very long time and hate simple mistakes or mistakes MS Word 95 would catch because they have become commonplace in almost every article that is being posted.

If we can't trust the competence of the everyday news people here then how does that reflect on the people who are writing the hardware reviews?
