But true to form, we're lagging behind the Far East: Samsung has already sold 26,000 3DTV sets in South Korea alone. Anon@9.35, I wouldn't be surprised if you were right. The same was true of both the printing press and, more recently, the Internet. I’m sure the World Cup helped drive a fair percentage of those 25,000 European sales as well, Cathy.

It doesn't seem that much, though, when the industry expects global sales of 252 million this year. GfK's survey said 2/3rds of people interested in buying one wanted it for gaming. Nintendo 3DS is out in a few months. A Jan 2011 review will be interesting... ...But did you see the Queen in her Swarovski-encrusted 3D specs? She wore a pair at a 3D screening at Canada's Pinewood. Proper pimped up crystal 'Q' on the side. One loves it. GfK (market research company) says 25,000 3DTV sets were sold in Europe in May – which was pretty much the first month of availability.
