I heard that too - landing on other planets was another item mentioned.
I was interested in the apparent implication that 3D TV is something that's
really great, and coming in the future.

On the other hand, I saw an old clip from "The Honeymooners" several years
ago (originally recorded ~late 50's to early 60's??) in which Alice criticizes
Ralph for not buying a television set, and Ralph heatedly responds that he's
"waiting for it to come out in 3D". :-)
