strapped for cash:
gar1975:i think the real question is, how many people have purchased a 3D TV, because it was a 3D TV, i'm guessing the majority of sales are due to people needing a new TV & it just happens to be 3D...
I'd agree to some extent, but 3D models have been more expensive so far. I'm guessing a fair few people have thought "what the hell, we might as well be future-proof" when buying 3D TVs, or been sold on the "latest" technology by store clerks.
According to the WHF article, people went nuts buying HD televisions in preparartion for the World Cup. I'd imagine they felt a little sheepish a couple of weeks later; unless, of course, they were Spanish, or German, or Argentinian, and so on...
yeah, my point exactly, its an after thought...
