   That would be cool, but what would be really nice is holographic display technology, so I don't have to wear those stupid glasses at home.

   I just did a podcast about this last night. ESPN says it will have a channel to broadcast in 3_D by June 11th and Discovery Channel is teaming with I-Max and Sony to broadcast full time by 2011. Crazy huh? Should be interesting.

   Ive been researching the technology behind Avatar (which is a whole different animal than Coraline) ..this year the HDMI compliance will include specifics to 3D viewing!
   
   Capable Monitors for PC's are available and are not considerably more expensive at the 23-32' scale.
