James Cameron to Promote 3-D TVs


From worstpreviews, Panasonic and Sony have been working on building and promoting TVs that can properly display 3-D content. Both companies are planning to start selling these 3-D TVs next year. At this point, it is not clear how much they would cost.

To become a 3D leader, Panasonic has signed director James Cameron to give the company ideas for technological improvements and help with promoting the product.

Panasonic plans to have several vans driving around in the US and Europe next month with large-screen 3D TVs inside showing "Avatar." In Japan, footage from the movie will appear in ads for 3D TVs.

"I believe 3D is how we will experience movies, gaming and computing in the near future. 3D is not something you watch. It's a reality you feel you could step into," said Cameron.

Oh dear. It looks like James Cameron read my comments earlier and is trying to prove me wrong about 3D.

Still, believe it when I see it. I feel like his quote should really read "3D is not something you watch. It's a reality you feel you could step into... but actually you just watch."
