Sony 3D Experience brings free on-demand movie trailers, sports clips to Bravia TVs

HDTV manufacturers have used a variety of tactics to attract customers to the 3D segment, bundling free glasses , discounting Blu-ray players , and nearly eliminating unsightly bezels , but with content selection still incredibly limited, there’s been little incentive for consumers to shell out extra cash for a 3D set.

Plextor PL-LB950UE Blu-ray burner lands in the US with heady mix of USB 3.0 speed and double-layer storage

Europeans have been able to bag this speedy external writer for a few months now, but it’s only just received its Green Card — turning up in the US with a suitcase full of dreams and a price tag of $239.99. A quick check of its CV resume reveals a choice of either USB 3.0 or eSATA connectivity, 12x write speed, and the ability to burn up to 50GB of data on a dual-layer disc. The drive is being pitched as an “all-in-one Blu-ray device” because it also handles 3D playback and has a low vibration system for quieter operation.

Sharp intros HDD-equipped AQUOS Blu-ray 3D players, complete with BDXL support

You won’t find this trio hitting US shores anytime soon, but those situated in Japan have a new gaggle of Sharp BD decks to ogle.

Pioneer previews its trio of 3D Blu-ray players at CEDIA

Not quite as good as an actual announcement, but at CEDIA Pioneer was previewing its BDP-430, BDP-43FD and BDP-41FD 3D Blu-ray players which are expected to cost the same or less than the current models at $299, $399 and $499. The look and feel is pretty much what we’ve come to expect from Pioneer and the line includes the usual suspect of streaming options, with one yet to be announced option that should be revealed before they hit the street next spring
