You’ve worn the glasses. Seen the demos. Winced at objects flying out the screen. And you’re ready to buy a 3D TV.

Congratulations, brave early adopter. Although the 3D TV maelstrom at CES 2010 generated a fair bit of skepticism, the technology also managed to floor many people, and if the commercial success of Avatar is any indication, 3D movies aren’t going to disappear any time soon. Ready to get in on the ground floor? Watch out, it’s still under construction. But our 3D TV buyer’s guide can help show you how to set up shop in three dimensions. Follow along as we lay your questions on the new format to rest.

Which new models were announced at CES 2010? When will they be available?
Just about every major manufacturer announced a 3D television at CES 2010. Here’s a rundown on the big models in order of their release:

•Panasonic Viera VT25 Series Plasma (Available now)
Samsung LED8000 Series LCD (Available now)
•LG LX9500 Series LCD (Available in Korea, coming to U.S. in May)
•Sony LX900 Series LCD (Summer 2010)
•Vizio XVT Pro Series LCD (Available in August 2010)
