> I don't know anyone who has been requesting a 3D display on their phone.

Well, 7 years ago I didn't know anyone who was asking to eliminate physical keyboards from phones.

I'm less skeptical of the merit of the idea (whatever exactly it turns out to be), than I am of Amazon's first generation implementation (based on owning 1st gen versions of Kindle eReader and Kindle Fire).

The thing is 3d screens have been a tested quantity (both on things like the 3DS and on a lot of phones in Japan). It's been far from a hit.

So does the phones without physical keyboards, using touch pens, until Apple figured out how to eliminate that damn pen and just use fingers and here we are today. I give it a benefit of doubt - I doubt that what has been done to 3d displays is all what can be done ;)
