Could my problems with 3DTV be down to the size of my noggin?
I’ve commented in the story on the 3D TV broadcasts of the AFL and NRL Grand Finals that 3DTV has to date made me feel a little on the nauseous side. Doesn’t seem to matter who the vendor is, the process of fooling the eye into thinking 2D images have depth just makes my stomach want to demonstrate how much depth it has rather forcefully.
Sony doesn’t yet have a solution to my problems, but as Gus at Lifehacker discovered this afternoon, they are working to solve another problem that early 3DTV adopters have noted, namely, glasses that are too big to fit on tiny heads. Anyone got a head-shrinking potion I can test to see if that cures my particular 3D TV woes?

Wait.. if the problem is that the “glasses that are too big to fit on tiny heads..” wouldn’t you need a head growing potion? A head shrinking potion would only exacerbate the problem.

I do feel sorry for you for feeling sick everytime you look at 3D TV. Have you tried the Sony Tv’s? I didn’t like the Samsung ones too much, there was a lot of cross talk but I bought a Sony last weekend and have had no issues. other than no Blu-Ray update for PS3 but if 3D Wipeout doesn’t make me puke nothing will

The polaroid glasses they use at the cinema are all too small for my head, but the active 3D shutters flickering for home 3D just gives me a damn migraine.
Awful, I’ll care when I can wear no glasses.

hrmmm… I seem to be the reverse to most -or- maybe its just LG’s 3D glasses… there wayy to small! They acutely taper off at the end so you feel like its pinching and squeezing at the side of your head which after even half hour is a fair bit unpleasant.. oh well
