I imagine it'll have a handful of impressive titles when it really gets going. But. It'll be a tiny minority compared to the total number of movies I have and that are out there that I want.
So I'll be far more interested in the general & ordinary playback/display abilities of the TV, no matter how good it is at 3D. So if viewing angles are rubbish or colours look bad or motion looks unnatural off-centre etc etc then sorry, there's absolutely no chance of a sale here.
If it really does work then it'll be a nice little extra feature - but it won't be anything I'm interested in paying a significant premium for (and I imagine I'm far from alone in that, which is why I suspect it's not really going to take off, again).
I'm agreeing with you. I'm not at all excited by living-room 3D at the moment - all the current technologies require either silly glasses or restricted viewing angles, neither of which are good for my living room.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
No poll on show here either.

3D gaming on PCs is another matter...
