Samsung aims for first Euro 3D TVs South Korean consumer electronics giant Samsung Electronics is aiming to be the first TV-maker to offer a full HD 1080p LED-backlit 3D television in Europe. It will begin shipments of its 3D-capable units to Europe next month along with expansions of its 8 and 7-series LEDs and 6-series LCDs.
For plasma proponents, Samsung is aiming to ship 3D plasma televisions to Europe in "late Spring". The company will also release its new BD-C6900, a 3D Blu-ray player, and will offer 9-series LEDs and the HT-C6930W home theater rig in Spring.

3D models come with "wireless-ready" capabilities and sport a built-in Ethernet connection to access the company's Internet@TV online applications store. Among the media downloads being offered from the service is software from the History Channel, Cartoon Network, Google's Picasa and BBC's iPlayer.

Only thing is im not sure about the contrast. Its "Mega Dynamic Contrast Ratio"

Is the Samsung BD-C6500 3D Ready because we have that one too, just came in about a week ago.

I can't believe this. America just underwent the switch to digital television less than a year ago and already they have started the switch to 3D. I don't think America is ready for the switch to 3D.

This shouldn't happen for at least another five years.
