Why be so negative about 3D? I have the nVidia stereoscopic 3D vision glasses with the Samsung 120Hz LCD monitor here and that combo works fine. The monitor needs a dual-link DVI to get to 120Hz at 1680x1050 of course. Nice monitor for stutter-free PAL video editing too, as it can also do 100Hz.
I think backwards compatibility is the reason for 30Hz or 60Hz per eye in the BD3D spec, any 60Hz capable screen is 3D-capable like that and they can make the PS3 support 30Hz 3D with just a software upgrade. Single-link HDMI cannot do 1080p120, you'd need a hardware upgrade for that. The real issue will probably be syncing; if the glasses get their sync from the PS3 through some IR dongle then you will need to compensate for processing delays in the TV - maybe they can use the audio delay compensation feature for this... I'm looking forward to 3D on my Pioneer Kuro - but I'll never trade in that screen for anything else.
During his WWDC keynote, Steve Jobs touted iCloud as a service that will sync many of your Apple devices, for free. Macs, iPhones, iPads, and even Windows computers can synchronize documents, contacts, calendar appointments, and other data.
