bound to be a catch... looks to be a great price

Zonda999

No catch i reckon and it is a good price to be fair. Pixmania around this time of year often have good deals on 2010 stock as they make space for new products.

Too bad it's pixmania.

You could always ask the guys over on the RicherSounds Forum to price beat the Pixmania price, if people are that worried about Pix.

Please note that to watch content in 3D, you will require an infrared transmitter (included) and 3D glasses.

Can someone please explain this to me. Why do I need an infra red transmitter?

Soarer

They're active shutter glasses.
Basically the transmitter, in time with the tv, will open and close each side of the glasses many times a second, which gives the 3D effect. Not like the old red/blue lense cardboard glasses that were around years ago.
The glasses will need batteries too.

Don't know if that's 100% correct, but tis close enough.

Is that the standard for 3D TV at the moment?

Is there no telly that you just need those cinemak style black glasses to view?

Do the pubs showing sky 3d matches use these infra red glasses?

Sorry about all the Q's.

Yeah its the standard for living room 3D at the moment. Those cinema glasses work because the 3d is produced by using 2 different projectors, one for each eye. I have heard rumblings of living room 3d being developed by samsung without the need for glasses though, so I'm gonna wait a while and see what happens. Those should use the "sweet spot" pixel based 3d seen in Nintendo's new 3DS console coming out soon

Mr Trade In

No catch here,there are some other 3D TVs around the same price on pix,just wish I could afford one myself.:(

Well thats not that cheap for a 3D tv i picked up my Panasonic 42 inch plasma with a pair of 3D glasses for 800 euro in DID and that i what you call a deal and 1/2

I think think I saw an 11 inch glasses free 3D TV released in Japan.

Was like $2000.

I think we're a few years away from glasses free 3D TVs at a size > 32inches for <€1000

Then why didn't you post it here and let others know of a bargain,after all isn't that what this forum is for?

That Panasonic 3D plasma would be a far superior tv to be fair

I couldn't find it on www.DID.ie,yes it would be far better and if I had seen it I would have posted it here,my original post was and is a bargain as 3D tvs are usually upwards of €1000,can a mod lock this as anyone who is interested has already seen it and it is now becoming a debacle.

Soarer

It's far from a debacle, and it's a good bargain.

Some people can't watch plasmas due to phosphor trails, and the Pana is supposed to suffer with screen reflections, floating blacks, motion handling problems. Plus, the Panas are dog ugly things.

So I wouldn't go locking the thread just yet!

Hi all,

does anybody know if this TV has an MPEG4 decoder? Rang Pixmania but they couldn't confirm.

SteM

It's marked as TNT HD compatible which it means it has an mpeg4 decoder as far as I know.
