Japan Getting 3D HDTV from JVC

We’ve seen some interesting developments in 3D tech lately, but there’s still not much television content out there in the third dimension. No matter, JVC is going full bore with a 46-inch 3D LCD, set to debut at NABshow in Las Vegas this weekend. The GD-463D1 uses a polarizing filter and comes with a pair of polarized glasses. Contrast ratio is 2000:1 with a maximum of 10000:1 in dynamic mode. I’ll cost 700,000 yen (approximately $7,000). If you’re in Japan (and wealthy), do your part to break the vicious cycle — where there’s no 3D content because the install base is too low, because there’s no 3D content — and splurge.
