Seems like everybody wants to jump on the 3D bandwagon these days. Whoever has seen a 3D movie is used to those cheap plasticky ones that make you look like you're heading for snorkeling every time you wear them. As a solution, eyewear maker Oakley plans to release a range of 3D glasses that aren't too embarrassing to wear on. They are passively polarized so they'll work in movie theaters. But newer active-shutter technology like the NVIDIA 3D Vision wouldn't work with it. They'll cost you $150 (Rs. 6,680). 
Similary, luxury accessory brand Gucci also has one in the making. This one apparently has the ability for the wearer to look into a mirror with the glasses on and not see a distorted image. They'll sell next month for whopping $225 ( Rs. 10,020! approx.) You can buy NVIDIA's 3D Vision kit for 3D gaming on your PC at that price. Not only is this 3D thing blown out of proportion, now premium companies can leech money off the monetarily healthy to make them look cool in a dark theater where you can barely see your neighbor.
