Having waited for over two months since I looked into getting these new glasses. Sony store's and some approved dealers have finally got some stock. The new TDG-BR250 re-chargeable 3D glasses. I had a demo of the smaller TDG-BR200 glasses last Friday and on the strength of that order some BR250's to have a look at. Well the news is good IMO, in that flicker is greatly reduced, to a point where you'd be hard pushed to notice it in all but the most testing of conditions. The glasses themselves are much lighter and more comfortable. There still quite well made too, even with the weight saving. Another great plus is that they are now re-chargeable in just 30 minutes for 30 hours of playback and if you come to watch a film and there flat, you can give them a short (3 minutes) burst that's good for 3 hours. I've tried several discs with them and found them a definate improvement over the TDG-BR100's that I got with my TV. Most people, myself included have complained that they suffer with eyestrain of one kind or another when viewing 3D over per-longed periods. So I settled down to watch a film and can confirm no eyestrain at all. My tolerance had been about twenty to twenty five minutes before this. Without the flicker, I could enjoy the 3D much more. The 3D looked a lot better as well. With well defined depth and edges. Cross talk seemed reduce to a point that I only noticed it once or twice and it didn't spoil my enjoyment of the film. So overall a big thumbs up. They could have just saved 3D for me.
