I love Comic-Con and follow it each year. I hope one day I'll be able to attend it live :)
As far as 3D technology in gaming is concerned, I think it's an area with huge potential and much larger than HD or any other technology. One of the reasons why this is not so popular is because manufacturers have not really attempted to introduce this to the world on a large scale. May be they don't consider the technology to be complete and ready to sell on a mass scale. I have a feeling that once 3D gaming is out on a commercial basis and on a large scale, it will revolutionize gaming.
@ Anna, also the content is hot huge for 3D. For HD, content has been coming so it is becoming popular. As for 3D movies, the trend is that the movie goers pay more only when they see any advantage such as thrilling experience. I think 3D still has to come a long way before getting popularity.
I agree DennisQ with your comment that consumer's interests in 3D is low, but has generate more interest at the cinemas. I think this due to a combination of various factors. Recession is one, and consumer's loss of confidence in 3D is another. what's the point in investing in a product when there is clear alternative.HDTV will always be a clear option anyway.
It's no surprise as reflected in Tony's article that there was no demo or nothing for 3DTV at the ComicCon 2011.
I think sony has still chance to come back because as Tony said Sony can still tap into its broad product spectrum from movies and TV content to consumer electronics.

Peter Drucker famously said "Trying to predict the future is like trying to drive down a country road at night with no lights while looking out the back window." Yet in the razor's-edge world of electronics—with a lean supply chain and just-in-time demands—the need to know the future is vital.
While no one really can accurately predict the future, we can take guidance from another Drucker saying which is the best way to predict the future is to create it.
You've heard the saying "the No. 1 supply chain risk is your people." That hasn't always been the case. But today's complex global supply chain requires a new type of multitalented employee.

Where are these people? Are universities properly preparing the next generation supply chain professionals? How do train your existing workforce for these new, demanding positions?
Brian Fuller, editor-in-chief of EBN, will lead a 60-minute Avnet Velocity panel discussion that will ask and answer these and other questions swirling around today's supply-chain talent challenges.
