3D Sports TV - a reality in 2010
From espn.com
Not sure whether a new TV is required for this, but I would guess yes.Sports broadcasting will enter a new dimension in 2010 ... the third dimension, as ESPN will unveil the industry's first 3-D network.
ESPN 3D will showcase a minimum of 85 live sporting events during its first year, beginning June 11 with the first 2010 FIFA World Cup match, featuring South Africa versus Mexico, ESPN and ABC Sports president George Bodenheimer announced.
Other events to be produced in 3-D include the 2011 BCS National Championship Game, college basketball and football contests, up to 25 World Cup matches and the Summer X Games. Additional events will be announced at a later date.
"ESPN's commitment to 3-D is a win for fans and our business partners," Bodenheimer said in a statement. "ESPN 3D marries great content with new technology to enhance the fan's viewing experience and puts ESPN at the forefront of the next big advance for TV viewing."
ESPN has been testing ESPN 3D for more than two years, even showing a USC-Ohio State college football game in select theaters and to 6,000 fans at the Galen Center on USC's campus.
"This is a turning point for 3-D," Consumer Electronics Association CEO Gary Shapiro told USA Today.

Not just the issue of a new TV, but heaps of other things as well.
According to http://www.kansascity.com/105/story/1666464.html
A new TV set. Price tag Four Figures.
Plus a couple of hunj for computerized “active shutter” 3-D glasses. Probably per pair.
A new 3-D Blu-ray or DVD player. Won't be cheap.
And the clincher... TV experts reckon manufacturers have yet to agree upon a single standard that will allow one pair of glasses to be used with sets produced by different manufacturers. If you have a Panasonic 3-D TV and I have a Sony 3-D TV, you will not be able to use your glasses on my set.
What bollocks.

Tubby Taylor's head, Tong Greig's forehead, Michael Slater's ego and Mark Nicholas's fruitiness in 3D?? No thanks.
