Appendix : What to Watch on your 3D Tablet ?

Your 3D Tablet, equipped with the 3DPlayer, offers the user access to a wide and
expanding world of 3D content, available over the internet.


3D is still a relatively new technology and users of the 3D Tablet can explore this

new realm with a pioneering spirit! While abundant 3D media content already

exists on the internet and awaits your discovery, users can feel confident that
over the next several years the volume of this content will expand substantially,
driven by the continued robust growth of both 3D cinema and the 3D TV market
(already, in 2013, 20% of US homes own a 3D TV and Hollywood has dozens of 3D

movies on the slate, and many more in the pipeline.). And more and more of this
filmed and broadcast content will make its way onto the internet.


So what's available for 3D content now ?

YouTube: YouTube is the world's largest repository for 3d content and currently
features over 20,000 3D videos, a number which will grow rapidly in coming

years. Users need to bear in mind as they explore this archive, that in 3D just as

with YouTube's standard 2D content, the quality of these videos varies greatly
from professionally produced big-studio movie trailers on down to haphazard
amateur efforts. Patience and a sense of humor are always helpful and you will
be rewarded. If you are reading this Guide for the first time, we recommend that
you start your YouTube explorations with two exciting 3D videos, play them in HD
if your network will support it: '3D Mash-up 2011' and '3D Aquarium -
Introduction'


What about those Hollywood 3D movies? Consumer demand for streaming video

on mobile devices is growing exponentially and we expect that this service,
including both 2D and 3D video streaming, will become a standard offering from

the major service providers, Netflix, Vudu, Amazon, Blockbuster and others in the
very near future. For example, Vudu, a Walmart service, is already offering
streaming 3D movies to owners of 3D TVs.


For more adventurous users, a Google search on '3D movies' will turn up

numerous sites offering downloads of a vast variety of movie content, including
many of the well-known Hollywood titles, past and more recent. Many of these

sites enable efficient downloading and users can download this content to their
PC or laptop, then transfer it for 3D viewing to their tablet.
