i just got a LG 42" LW5700, i like to say, 3d was very impressive. Passive 3d is definitely the future as the spec was light and i can view it from a more wide angle. I can even watch the 3d in a lower position (etc laying down position).

However 2d was not up to the notch. My previous sharp aquas was better in 2d. LG was not that sharp, and LG cant really handle the quick motion on movie and games

but anyway, bought this LG for 3d, therefore quite satisfied with the performance and with the money pay. well worth
