    LGbundle

    Don’t you love it when manufacturers bundle products? I mean, what’s the burger without some fries and a soda? Anyways, here’s the latest bundle out of LG — an entertainment package featuring an LG Cinema 3D HDTV, a 3D Blu-ray player and four sets of 3D glasses. That enough 3D for you?

    The entertainment package comes with a 47- or 55-inch TV set, and that LG Blu-ray player delivers Full HD 1080p picture. The 3D TV set is designed especially to allow for wide-viewing angles and comes equipped with LG’s 3D Light Boost — a thin lining laid over the screen that helps counteract dimness sometimes associated with 3D content. LG’s TV also touts a TruMotion refresh rate of 120Hz, and has the ability to transform 2D content to 3D. It’s magic.

    Those 3D glasses are the same as the ones that come with the recently announced LW980S, and at $25 a pop from Best Buy, they’re affordable enough to get extras and make your Super Bowl party a strictly tridimensional affair. Now about that price tag: the 47-inch package will go for an MSRP of $1,399.99, while the 55-incher will go for $1,899.99. However, (and this is a big however), Best Buy is selling both packages for $1,099.99 and $1,599.99 respectively.
