Les, I did a lot of searching and reading about 3D before I got Acer.
1080p 3D projector is roughly 10 times more expensive and HDMI cable would be able to pump only movies at 3D 1080p and 24 fps (essentially 1080p/24 X2 for each eye)(using3:2 pulldown option) and if you want to play games in 3D, you need 1080X60 times 2 (each eye) which even 5000 bucks projector can't do. Even if it could using Display Port (which it doesn't) then another consideration is
videocard with new COD, think about it, 1920X1080(resolution)X60(fps)X2(each eye gets his own picture) that is twice more then 1280X720X60X2 which is roughly the same load on videcard as it would do at flat 1920X1080.
PS. I was sceptic of 1280X720 but let me tell you in 3D each eye gets 1 mil pixels while in 2D you get 2million pixels for both eyes. Don't know how to explain but that 3D dimension gives me more immersion then anything that I have seen today in 2d.
Friends came over and watched AVatar and they were very excited. Gran Turismo in 3D on PS3 looks absolutely gorgeous, you do feel how far that corner is and when to start braking.
Again, i feel for those who has medical problems watching 3D.
