Still looks 2D

I watched the associated video and it still looks 2D to me.

Lenticular screens

For a while the electronics giants were flirting with lenticular 3D displays. Then they went shutter glasses for a hot second. Now they are pushing passive polarized... and then Viewsonic comes out with a lenticular display.

So what is the hold-up on shadeless 3D displays? One may freely purchase lenticular stereographic overlays for many different models of netbooks, laptops and desktop displays. Sharp and Fuji both have portable consumer electronics with these displays as well.
Now Viewsonic.

Me perhaps thinks the lenticular display was repressed by the industry while they still had time to ram a bunch of expensive shutter-shades through their elite-end boutique market.

I also think they avoided developing passive stereoscopic displays for that reason as well.

Every night, I kneel and pray to Jebus that the US govt. will set up a Guantanamo-style kangaroo court for those CEOs of Sony, Toshiba, LG, et al. who have, over the years, willfully colluded amongst themselves to prevent consumers from watching overwhelmingly boring and trite 3D films (produced and sold by their very same companies) in the dwindling privacies of their own homes.

Not a true story. I still find it "interesting" though that we don't have lenticular displays for sale at the mall yet. :P
