... was renamd the " Sharp Actius RD3D " for the US market. The Mebius PC-RD3D was the first autostereo display notebook ever made, released around a month or two later, under a different name for the US market. Maybe if this new Mebius CV50 comes to the US, it will be renamed the Actius CV50 ?

Let's put the puzzle together. We have:
an autostereo display
a potential 3D input device
and now some desktops (Metisse and Looking Glass) that would actually benefit from this technology.

It seems like everybody is saying (moreso in the last story than this one) that this 3d desktop "would be cool if it had better i/o" and everyone is saying autostereo displays and gesture input devices "would be cool if there were something to use them on." The future is now, my friend! Soon we'll all walk in to CompUSA and pick up a 3D interface kit for $200, then hook them up to our already bug-free and feature-rich window managers compliments of Metisse developers. Well, maybe not soon. We can dream, though.

I can just imagine using this 3D desktop with a Sharp 3D display.

Would mouse pointer movement include depth perception with this setup?

right there in YELLOW of all colors! sheesh!
