The 3D advent or is it an assault

In the first week of January at Consumer Electronics Show, lots of 3D television technologies and broadcasting services were announced as well as showcased and the need for 3D television has gained momentum after James Cameron’s Avatar hit the screens and took everyone by astonishment.

Many electronic giants have taken the initiative to develop a television compatible with 3D technology and fortunately the HD set top boxes of today are already well equipped to receive 3D broadcast signals. The Sky HD Box is the best Set top box offered by Sky. Broadcast?? Yes, you got it right…the major national and international broadcasters have already started preparing and producing digital content suitable for display on 3D television sets.
Imagine, the whole family sitting together wearing 3D goggles and cheering together for any goal hit by Massa or hooting a wrong decision by referee!

The advent of 3D digital television is nothing short of a phenomenon and is bring hailed as the next revolution in the field of television after they went color from black and white.

But like every other pleasurable material pursuit in life, it isn’t free and comes at a rather huge cost, the beginning price being one thousand pounds, which means that for time being it is going to be beyond the reach of bourgeois. But then they can always go to a pub or a club to enjoy their favorite teams taking on each other in 3D….they obviously isn’t planning to watch the every day soaps on it. They can if they so wish to but it will become rather monotonous if they do so and the whole charm of a 3D experience will soon lose ground.
