With all the major consumer electronics companies clambering to rush out 3D enabled TV systems, you are probably asking yourself is this the time to buy a 3D TV. One of the main sales periods for new TVs, outside of Christmas, has always been linked to major sporting events.

All the recent talk, in particular at this year's consumer electronics show, has centered around 3D enabled TV systems. All the big names are hinting, not all that subtly either, that 3D will be the driving force in HDTV sales in the coming years, but how as the technology changed to get us to this point?

This is in no way Jaws 3 nor will you have to upset the style police by wearing those bizarre red and blue lensed cardboard glasses, after all this is not the eighties but with any luck this time round this is the real thing. Read why LCD 3D enabled TV systems will be here to stay.

We have seen curved plasmas, OLED TVs and LCDs in the past, both as prototypes and actual products. And while many people believe OLED screens and not LCDs or plasmas are the future, a Japanese consortium of 13 companies and institutions is working hard on developing super-thin, flexible LCDs. The companies claim they now have found a way to produce these LCDs by using plastic film instead of glass substrates.
