Ironically enough, the stream is probably going to be the best place for 3D for third party titles by a mile. If it's specced for 1080p, 720p in 3D pushes almost the exact same amount of pixels. HDMI 1.4 is only specced for 24fps in 1080p 3D, so that's unusable for games until a new HDMI spec comes out, and that would even require a new TV, so its possible HDMI 1.5 won't even be supported by the next Sony/MS.
720p 3D support is top of the line ATM, so I find it kind of strange that they're not focusing on 3D on the console when it's going to be a very legitimate selling point when applied to 3rd party ports. As a 3DTV owner I can attest to the fact that the current console 3D experience is total fucking garbage. On a 1080p console, 720p 3D is basically a freebie that their hardware can handle without breaking a sweat and support comes free with a modern HDMI port.
In fact, I'm looking far more forward to that than the modest image quality increase you get going from 720p to 1080p. I really hope they don't just ignore it....a dx10 level super mario galaxy 3 in 60fps 720p 3D? Hell yes I want that.
