Who else is sick of 3d tv. Iown one and wearing the glasses suck and Iwould rather watch my 1080p. in my opinion 3d is over rated.

I think its mostly because its still new technology. Soon, 3d tvs probably won't need glasses, so it'll be much better. I hope. lol

they already have one that doesn't need glasses... can't remember who makes it though

the new nintendo ds is, but when i was reading about the tech they said you generally have to be stationary for the effect to work, and we are anything but. there probably working on a fix now i would imagine

Really? Damn. I'm gettin behind the times.

I saw a commercial earlier for a new HTC phone that takes video in 3d. Apperently no glasses needed..

saying something is 3d is just a fancy way of saying hey lets jack the price up another few hundred bucks

sseidriver97 06-27-2011 10:07 PM

I take pride in my TV's because Im married and thats my escape with out getting drunk. I have 2 65" TV's in the family room and Living room, a 50" Plasma in our den, two 32 inch" TV's in my daughter and sons room. I just had an impulse buy for my gaming room I bought a 92 inch Mitsubishi 3d TV and I absolutley hate the 3d. Im kicking myself for buying such huge TV but the PS3 has 3d gaming so I thought I would try it out. Glasses bite and I turned off the 3d option on my TV so I spent the extra 1k for the stupid 3d. Why didn you guys stop me j/k. Take Care and God Bless

sawgunner 06-29-2011 01:56 PM

i'm married too but with her job paying crappy still after 6 years of service and mine being hit or miss ya we can't really afford the monthly bills right now let alone the appliances and such we really need / want LOL

also the surgery i had on my hand yesterday is putting an even harder clamp on things. i'm going to be out of work for atleast a week

zigger21 06-29-2011 02:00 PM

I hope they put you on some good pain relievers to make verything easier but if they put you on narcotics please take them as described and only use them when you need them because I have been down that road with my back and addiction is no joke. It took a hold of me and nearly destroyed my marriage and my life. Take care and please take my words into condideration. God Bless

sawgunner 06-29-2011 02:04 PM

no worries there man my cousin went down the same road you've been down have seen it first hand. no way i'm going down that road and yes they gave me narcotics and i am actually trying to refrain from taking them it says take 1-2 pills every 4-6 hours i'm lucky if i take 2 a day. just trying to fight off the pain as much as i can naturally.

and thanks for the concern i appreciate it:thumbup2

Buick96 06-29-2011 03:52 PM

i was addicted to vicodin for 3 years before i got surgery.. soooo glad i broke that addiction.. im immune to them now..

sawgunner 06-29-2011 04:24 PM
