Toshiba Matsushita Display teases handheld, high res, no glasses 3D

We swore we wouldn't fall for tech demos of Toshiba Matsushita Display's sexy optically compensated bend LCDs and their CRT-like ultra wide viewing angles and high refresh rates ever again but by adding autostereoscopic 3D (read: no glasses necessary) we're falling in love all over again. By adapting a 3D film for use with 3- and 9-inch displays, this year's CES demo promises simultaneous 2D and 3D viewing on the same display in high res. How close is OCB's curved, rather than horizontally or vertically aligned liquid crystal approach to reality? Your guess is as good as ours but for now we'll wait for some eyes-on time and throw it on the wait-and-wait-and-see heap with SED and the rest.

What is this? A Toshiba article without the hate?

One day an image will be made from multiple ultra thin display layers that will create a real sense of 3d - depth.

Way to make my 2 grand TV obselete....

Your 2 grand tv is only 3 inches big, you got pwned!

Three Inch Displays huh? Hmmm makes me think this should go in the New PSP4000, a handheld 3D gaming console. These guys should really be hanging out with Sony at their booth and possible Sony should buy these folks out. Hopefully it'll work really well otherwise OCB will stand for: Obviously Complete Bullshit.

I could get into a 9 inch netbook (or a photoframe or whatever) with a 3D display... Plus, if the tech works, the screens will get larger.
