Will 3d on traditional plasmas/lcd ever be possible?

Yes, and they don't require glasses either.

Here are the two technologies out for it

Supposedly you can convert any screen to 3D by putting on a parallax barrier or buying lenticular lens for it.
ex: this site sells lenticular lens and software to make you display 3D

I soo want one to convert my 24" LCD, but that site is a total rip off. Most places only seem to sell the lenses in bulk. Still searching for one.

I dont think 3d will take off on TVs. Nobody wants to wear those dumb glasses just to watch TV all the time. It will be a novelty at best.

No.

Yes.

I did not figure you even needed a special TV for 3D. I thought 3D was just a special trick with colors red and blue, and it's the glasses that do the work.

It's a shame beer googles won't work for the 3D, othewise they'd have the market locked down! 😛

I won't care about this "3D" nonsense until somebody develops affordable holographic displays.
