I don't think 3DTV is a fad. I think it's current implementation is transitory. Forcing users to wear those stupid glasses was never a good idea. The should've just waited for holographic displays. The Nintnedo 3Ds already has a non-glasses 3D display, and there were several examples at CES. Now, some of the stuff at CES turns out to be vaporware for one reason or another, but there's a chance that affordable 3DTV sans glasses will be out in a few years. Once that happens, I think it'll take off. If you can have 3D without the glasses, and it's affordable, why wouldn't you want it?

I think what's turning a lot of people off is the content. Movies right now are mostly using 3D as a cheap gimmick. But c'mon....Don't you want to see Shark Week in 3D? Hell, I think it'd be great to watch an episode of "The Universe" in 3D.
