We just had a visit from VREX.  They provide a variety of 3D
options.  They have one very low cost entry point for stereo
glasses.  For I believe $35, they have a pair of shutter glasses
which connect via a wire into a pass through plug which goes
between your box and the monitor cable.  I don't know if you
could put multiple of these in series or whether you are limited
to one pair of glasses; you do have to live with being cabled to
your computer; and I haven't actually seen these in action; but
the price is very intriguing.

They are also looking at a very interesting technology for 3D on
a laptop with passive glasses.  It just requires the software to
support an alternate scanline mode for stereo (i.e. even scan
lines one eye, odd scan lines the other).  They even claim to be
willing to pass along the OpenGL code required to implement this
mode.

Anyway, their web site is www.vrex.com, and no I am not a
shareholder or getting any kickback for passing this along. :-)
