Question 3d no longer needs special screens or glasses?

Quote:
The technology is in its early stages now, judging from the video below, but it shows that both the iPhone 4 and iPad 2 (as well as many other devices) can deliver 3D experiences without the need for glasses, and without specialized screens like those found in Nintendo’s new 3DS portable console.
Source:
iPad 2, iPhone 4 get glasses-free 3D using head tracking (video) | VentureBeat
Link to a video:
YouTube - Head Tracking for iPhone: Glasses-Free 3D Display
Made by the french as well.
So. Who wants to bet that sony will cram this thing into the NGP?

Edit: It appears that spellcheck has caused me to forget how to spell "special". Can someone fix the title? :\
Double edit: I can post links now. I fixed them in this post.

If you are talking about the 3D, then I don't think Sony will be able to pull it off without getting some angry consumers.

On the plus side, maybe now we can send the 3d pictures we take on the 3ds to phones.
But this does make me slightly sad. 3d without glasses was the 3ds's big hook. Now, in the near future, EVERYTHING can have 3d.
Nintendo might of lost the main reason to buy a 3ds with this development to the average consumer. :\
