Let's talk about first things first. What's a 3D TV? It's a TV that's going to make you become even more of a couch potato that you are now. Just kidding. It's one of the latest technologies in TV making, the kind that gives the viewer a sensation of real life. The pictures seem to have a 3D perspective just like the human eye, and its surround sound, so that the interaction feels like it's live. You know how you watch a regular TV with a normal stare? With this one, your eye is roving over the screen because the action seems so live.

And they should help you with installation too and with channel installation.
Consider price. They are new technology and they are quite pricey. You need to be ready to fork out the cash, especially if you want to get a superior brand. Save enough for it so that you make sure you get the best of the best. One of the things you can do is to pay for it I bits if you're comfortable with that kind of thing.
