technology: Should have gone to Specsavers.

Keeping up with technology can be difficult for even the most technologically minded individual, new buzz words are thought up by marketing to make 10 year old technology seem new and exciting, just look at how the Apple Newton iPhone that has revolutionised the way you don't make phone calls.

I'm sure everybody and their dog has heard the 3D buzzword, how 3D can turn even the most pathetic plot into the 'Greatest Movie Experience Evar' it's all about 'Perspective' you know.

Perhaps this is true, but like many of you out there I wear corrective lenses and trying to wear active shutters is like balancing a hippo on top of the Eiffel Tower.

In truthiness 3D was reintroduced a few years back to try and curb the haemorrhaging numbers attending the cinema (which has so far failed miserably). The TV manufacturers jumped on it as an easy way to beat the spiralling costs incurred in pursuit of improving LCD technology by simply updating the picture engines in their existing models and killing off the dynamic 3LED back-lights that were costing them a fortune.
