3D in TV!
Want more action from watching your favorite ballgame?
Want to be really up close to the action?
Or you just want more from your newly installed hi-definition large-screen TV?
Well, you can stop wanting as a new dimension comes to your TV sets this June 11.
ESPN will be launching their 3D programming this year.
And with a World Cup soccer match (South Africa vs Mexico) at that.
The network has actually been testing their 3D capabilities for some time now. And come June they will officially be the first three-dimensional television network. They have so far identified about 85 live sporting events scheduled for showing. Initial plans are that they will have no reruns. Consequently, this means the screen will be blank or dark when there are no event scheduled for showing. But that would probably be only until they get more programs in their schedule.
Included in the events they already have slated are NBA games, Collee Football, College Basketball and the Summer X Games.
Oh, and to add to that news… Discovery has announced that they too will go 3D this year. Now imagine all those sharks, lions, tigers and crocs charging through your screen. 
Discover will be partnering up with Sony and IMAX for the 24×7 channel.

This surge of 3D effects for TV networks is designed to work with ordinary TVs. All you need are the 3D glasses. And thats it.
Soon to come are the real 3D TV where you won’t need the glasses anymore. But at the moment, they’re yet to come out. Plans indicate its going to be within 3 years.
