Samsung says viewing 3D TV can weaken your eyesight:

Uhh...  These are manufacturers issuing warnings about their own products, that they're hoping to sell!  Are they worried about the overly-litigious Americans, or have they encountered problems in the usability labs?

Go pull out the manual for your old game systems....

Page one... take breaks, may cause nausea, dizziness and seizures.

The only stand out here is that in children under a specific age 3D might be bad for their development.

Media is using terror and fear again to get your to read their crap.

Yeah, I can't believe the FUD around this... 3D sucks because its cheap exposition not because it will damage little Timmy's eyes
