Great rundown, a couple of other 3D spots are:Sahara's 3D Motion Theaters,
two
small 3D simulator rides that use
cardboard polarized glasses. Great
place to go for an upset stomach &
a brain concussion, from the
headrests during several dips.

Check out the web site for IMAX Corp/Caesars World's
Race To Atlantis. The first IMAX simulator film in 3D.
http://www.imax.com/attractions/simulator/atlantis.html
The attraction is a lot of fun (imagine Back to the Future,
the ride in 3D). The computer animation
by Rhythm and Hues http://www.rhythm.com
rivals the 3D work they did for
EFX, which is still playing at the MGM.
The tickets are $70.00 and the 3D segment
is only a few minutes, but very well done!
It is far superior to their
work on the other new & non-3D
attraction in Vegas-STAR TREK:
The Experience. Star Trek, I must
say it is also a lot of fun and should
not be missed either. Star Trek is at
the Hilton.

Nothing on their web site yet about thishttp://www.pki.com

Charlie, let us know if it is 3D or not.

Thanks for the time,
