The BBC have an interesting article covering the future of TV, estimating that by 2012 there will be 12 billion devices capable of watching 500 billion hours of TV and video content. They also mention that there will be 3D TV sets making their debut as early as next year:
"Big manufacturers such as Sony and Panasonic have announced plans to release 3D TV sets in 2010, while Samsung and Mitsubishi have recently released their products.
Speaking in early September at the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin, Howard Stringer, Sony's chief executive, said: "3D is clearly on the way to the mass market. The train is on the track and Sony is ready to drive it home."
Analyst firm Screen Digest forecasts 1.2 million 3D capable sets in American homes by the end of 2010. That figure is expected to rise to 9.7 million, or 8% of households, by 2013. "
