Do a Google to find out the adoption rate on 3D HDTVs, (eg percentage of 3D HDTV sales this year, and estimates for the next 5 years) to get some idea if 3D will become a new standard. If so, you might want to buy a HDTV that supports 3D; although, right now 3d HDTVs are more expensive that traditional HDTV. Samsung is a leader in both HDTV and 3D HDTV, but you pay for the better quality.
