They have been trying this 3d thing for at least 10 years now. It won't happen (being commercially successful) until it is cheap! Until then it just a fancy display very few will buy. I keep hoping but the promises keep failing.

I agree. It has to be cheap. According to this article in the next few years the price of 3D enabled displayed won't be more the 10% higher than normal TV on average. That is just another promise however.

Hmm, looks like polarized glasses, so the display would have to have some king of dual-polarized-pixels? must be why its "twice as bright". Would that mean there are two video inputs to connect this thing with, for left and right views?

What scientists need to do is find a way to genetically modify humans to grow circularly-polarized covers directly on the eyes. So we can finally do away with all this 3D-glasses rubbish.
