Tilt your head away from vertical and your eyes will not be aligned with the plane of the TV: your brain will start to perceive two images like in the picture of the article than be fooled into the 3D effect.

Probably OK for sports events where you are engrossed in the action; but no good for lounging in front of your favourite soap, film, tawdry celebrity/pikey embarrass-o-thon.

These are the pr0n you've been looking for. Yay for the future! 2D is dead, long live 3D.

The government may be watching everything we do, genetically modified food, ice sheets melting, waste mountains and if it isn't mandatory it'll be illegal, but we won't care because we'll be able to see Mrs Dingles breasts heaving over the edge of our sets on Emmerdale.

Smiley, but I'm really crying inside.

Mr ChriZ

Can you still watch 2D telly on it without specs? 

Or do you need two TV's?

Could this be the next big format war,

2D vs 3D

Which one is Toshiba backing?
