We could file this under rumors, however it falls into place with everything else we have been hearing from Sony. According to a leaked presentation, a PlayStation 3 3D firmware upgrade is in the works for the system in 2010.  Sony sees this is as a critical move for their console gaming strategy and a way to boost market demand for their high-end and high refresh rate TVs,  the 120hz and 240hz models. 

The gaming industry is well suited for 3D conversion, and for a large demographic, this might be the primary reason for purchasing 3D-TVs in the next 3 to 5 years.  This will hold people over and increase the commonality of 3D until laser TV technology removes the need for glasses and becomes more affordable, hopefully within about 5 years.   More more about this story at CVG and Kotaku.
