If you have purchased a 3D TV and a few pairs of $200 glasses that make you look ridiculous while watching a movie, Toshiba’s news may make you feel even worse. Reports coming from Japan claim that Toshiba will be offering a 3D TV that does not require viewers to wear special glasses this year.
According to the Daily Yomiuri, Toshiba will have three different models by the end of the year, including one 21” model. The TVs will cost “several hundred thousand” Yen and the good news here may be that the TVs appear to become available during the Christmas shopping season when we are willing to spend more money anyway. 100,000 Yen, by the way, translate into about $1200.
There is no information on the technology, but the publication said that Toshiba will use HD panels and all existing 3D content, including images can be played on those TVs. The new TV could slow the already not so impressive sales of current 3D TVs. However, massive sales can only be achieved when those TVs fall below $1000. Not many of us are likely to upgrade to an expensive TV with limited content now, especially if you have just bought a big LCD or LED TV.
