Who has tried 3d stereo vision?

I have been curious about the use of 3d glasses for gaming for quite a while, but always read that the flicker style glasses didnt give great results, and visors with internal displays were always too expensive (and had, up till recently, crappy resolution) . I recently came back to the idea (as I do every year or so) to see if any new products had come available that would finally make it reasonable to try out gaming in 3d.

I have come across a new product that has won some awards recently, the emagin z800: http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/051116/20051116005730.html?.v=1
or http://www.3dvisor.com/

Has anyone tried this? It's $900 (yikes!) but it looks like it may be the first sub $1000 product that actually gives good results with an internal display... and it has head tracking, headphones, and a microphone built in!

Also, now that I have my 7800 pumping away 80+fps in WOW and other games, I think I could actually have the graphical power to run the stereo drivers which would effectivly half the fps per eye, but yet stay smooth (I'm hoping). Also, the fact that it has to run at 800x600 means that it would pump out more fps, and I hear that the pixelation is not noticed as much when you are looking at a 3d image (the previous versions were 640x480, so these are a major improvement).

So... has anyone tried any of these 3d glasses/visors? I am also thinking about just trying out the (relatively) cheap flicker style glasses from eDimensional (http://www.edimensional.com/product_...products_id=29) but that would require me to get an external display for my notebook... but would be cheaper in the long run.

Yeah... not quite the same thing though

Thanks for the info.
I guess now I just have to find a cheap/used crt that can do 120hz at a respectable resolution, and get myself a pair of edimensional glasses. Maybe in a few years I'll be able to upgrade to a z800 or equivalant.

WOW!!! That's all I can say about this. I finally got my glasses last night, and WOW!!!

I found a used Dell p1130 crt for a great price, and bought some new I/O revelator glasses that I found in bulk on ebay (not selling yet, but I do have plenty extra that I will sell at cost ($25-30 shipped, vs. $60 retail), so look for a different thread later).

Anyways, my crt does 1280x960 @ 120 Hz (I can probably make it go higher, but I dont see any reason to push it) and I don't see flickering or ghosting at all. It is amazing for World of Warcraft. I will try other games once I can pull myself away from WoW... One thing I did notice was that even at 1280x960, the game still looks as crisp as it did at 1920x1200. I read somewhere that this is because your brain is combining 2 different images to form 1 3d view, so it automatically smoothes out all the edges for you as it is interpreting the data.

For anyone interested in gaming, this 3d viewing cannot be passed up! The 9300 video cards have enough punch to make low frame rate issues a thing of the past. It looks so amazing in 3d that its hard to think of a reason to play 'flat' any longer. And at 120 hz, you see NO flickering.

edit - forgot to mention that you do need to DOWNGRADE your drivers to version 78.01, as that is the lastest version of Nvidia's stereo drivers. In the past Nvidia has released new stereo drivers every so often, so hopefully we will see an upgraded driver soon. However, WoW runs seamlessly on those drivers, so I have no problems.
