Acer Reveals First 3D Laptop

Acer has been a busy little bee today, revealing various products like the Windows 7 Multitouch notebook and the 11.6-inch Aspire Timeline CULV notebook. Acer also displayed the world’s first mainstream 3D laptop during the press conference today as well, the oddly-named Acer Aspire 5738PG.

According to Pocket Lint’s hands-on report, the device doesn’t use hardware-based 3D acceleration like Nvidia’s 3D Vision GPU, but rather relies on a software solution called Acer 3D CineReal and the TriDef suite. However the software works in conjunction with a special 3D coating on the laptop’s screen and a pair of polarized glasses.
