A survey by Deloitte says that only two percent of British consumers are looking to buy a 3D TV in the next year – not a great sign for 3D gaming. Users also showed little inclination towards Internet-enabled televisions and cable/satellite PVRs, a tendency that increased the older the respondent got.
“It is remarkable how conservative people’s predictions for their own technology spending habits over the coming year were,” Deloitte media director Paul Lee said. “They didn t have to commit to buying anything during the research and yet still predicted very little spend on TV products moving forward. Belts have tightened after the economic downturn and with little understanding of what lies ahead, consumers are still being cautious.”
