You are not going to get me to wear those funny glasses

[R. Scott]

Whoopee.
I watched a 3D movie on my HD TV. I had to wear special glasses to see it in 3D. Now a new TV comes out (costing 10 X what I paid) that allows us to see 3D - if we’re wearing special glasses.

[plain talk]

they did not address the obvious question - what does the picture look like when NOT wearing the 3D glasses. we know what happens in the theatre when you take the glasses off.

Will there still be a Sears in March? :)

I really, REALLY wish they stopped calling them "LED TV's", because they are NOT. NO more than the previous generation of LCD TV's were "Fluorescent TV'S".

The LED's are simply the _backlighting_ system. They should be called "LED backlit" LCD's.

The REAL LED TV's (OLED's), have a picture and efficiency that are far superior to the current crop of "LED TV's". Super expensive too, but what are we gonna call them when they finally get to a decent price point, "Really Real LED TV's?"

Great, now I can search for my 3-D glasses right after I get done finding the $@$%# remote.

After reading all the negative comments about Samsung HD tvs and having one go bad on me I will not even consider purchasing one of these.
