SSG-3300CR Active Bluetooth 3d glasses on PS58C7000?

Hi all,

Have been looking forward to the release of the newer slimlight bluetooth 3d glasses for my PS58C7000 as i had heard they would be reducing the dreaded ghosting and terrible synch loss issues that plague our sets and now it appears they won't be compatible with my C series tv.

Can someone confirm or (preferably) deny this for me? Are there plans to release a bluetooth adapter or are those of us who supported samsung 3d early on getting kicked in the teeth with the release of these glasses?

Also will they be getting an australian release (i know it's assumed we'll be stuffed around on release dates but it'd be nice to know) and if not are the international ones compatible?

Looking forward to your responses.

Dave.

dayvb,

The information I have on the new Bluetooth glasses (2011) is that they won't be compatible with the 2010 TV models. The 2010 products have IR, and the 2011 glasses do not support IR.

I don't know if international products will vary by region. I would believe that they would NOT vary, but again, that's speculation at this point on products that aren't yet released.

I don't have further information on Australian releases, but I hope that helps answer your question.

I wouldn't think it would be to hard to create a bluetooth driver for a bluetooth dongle to allow the new 3D bluetooth glasses to work with 2010 3D TVs. Come on Samsung, Stop screwing with us and get with the times!

I'm in exactly the same boat. I got so upset when I found that the newer and cheaper one would not work with the 2010 models. I wrote samsung a couple of emails to let them hear my option and even sent a product idea requiest for a bluetooth adapter. How hard can that be, tey already have a wifi adapter. I figure if I don't express my opinion then no one would hear me. We all have to contact Samsung so they can hear us.
