These have been available for pre-order for awhile now, but I was waiting to see the reviews on their IR glasses before posting. The IR glasses seem to be getting favorable reviews.
EDIT: preorder period now over
If you get these, please post your thoughts. It would be interesting to see how they compare with other brands, such as Optoma, Viewsonic, and XpanD.

And if you have the panny 3D bdt 100 it outputs in checkerboard, so DLP link glasses like these will work fine? How is the quality on checkerboard using DLP on a mits? We'd still need the adapter though right? To get access to 3D from the cable company? Thanks in advance for the advice and comments.
Yes, for 3D from your cable or satellite company you'll need the adapter. Adapter isn't needed for 3D bluray from your panny 'cause it can output checkerboard.
Yer welcome and Merry Christmas!

I can't comment on DLP with Mits 'cause I'm using IR glasses/emitter with my Mits 73736.
Any one received these glasses yet? I am sitting on the fence waiting for some reviews to come in!!! I need at least 7 pair so these would be great if they have decent performance.
Sounds great! Any negative issues to report? How about the build quality? I have a panasonic 3d player so I will also be watching in checkerboard on my 73" mitsubishi.
I just got 4 sets. They seem to be all I could want. Using Total Theater 5 once I got my htpc set up right, they work fine. They come with a black drawstring bag to protect them when not in use. I have a HL67A750 and was amazed at the depth shown in the scene in Avatar where they are opening the sleeping chambers on the ship. They take one cr2032 battery and have a small button to tap to turn on. Sync seemed fine, there is just enough tint to override most of the red tint in black. After a couple of minutes didn't notice it at all. For the price they seem to be the best deal out there. 4 pairs for 211 including shipping. And no need to buy a emitter. Very light have large lenses and are comfortable. They also seem to fit a wide variety of faces. I don't have any others to compare them with but like them a lot. Highly recommended.

I got my 4 pair today and I have zero complaints.
I have a Samsung HL61A750 and I flashed the EDID to work with the Mitz 3d1-A adapter.
The glasses are very comfortable, they fit over my sons glasses and the batteries are very easy to access/change.
I don't own any other glasses but compared to what I have been seeing in the big box stores, these glasses are just as bright and give a great picture. The color looks good.
I tried them on my 3 y/o son and they worked. They just need a little band on the back to keep them from falling of his nose if he moves around.. But he was able to stand there for 5 minutes and watch without them falling off his face, if that says anything.

Sounds like it will work just fine. Thanks for the help!
I'm just about to pull the trigger on a couple pair. Does anyone who has used these had issues with using them in rooms with ambient light? In another thread people have said that in rooms with a fair amount of lighting sync is sometimes lost.
Also can I ask about the bridge of the glasses. Is it hard molded plastic or is there a soft rubber piece that the nose would sit on?
Ok I've been thinking about this and would like to throw my logic out for review.
Upstairs I have a Mitsubishi 60738. That's in the living room. In the basement HT I have an Optoma HD66 and will be getting the 3D-XL sometime in the future.
So my logic is this. Get a couple pair of the dlp link glasses and try them in the living room. If I have ambient light issues I'm not out anything because regardless what what I use upstairs (IR or DLP Link) I HAVE to use dlp link with the 3D-XL. If the dlp link glasses work fine in the living room then it is a win win for me because I can use one technology on both TVs.

No issues, except I think I saw "Rainbows" for the first time. Overall, much better then expected. I had only seen two other 3D presentations before: T2 at Universal in Orlando and Avatar in the theatre. This was much better!
Tried mine yesterday, with a 30" projection on a dirty-white wall from an Optoma gt720, well-lit room, mostly fluorescent lights. No sync or other functional issues; no crosstalk; colors were good; brightness was good (I expect it to be similar to the 100" gain 1.1 screen, bright mode, dark room). Spectacular 3d. Only problem was slipping/falling off, but I was looking down, the pj was on the floor; and the arms are short for my head/ears, this is a usual problem for me with all glasses. Overall very happy, especially after I just read there was no more discount on four pairs and less.
Well, like others I was posting in the general thread. I have nVidia 3D vision glasses. World of Warcraft in 3D is simply amazing. These ultra-clears are clearly better than the nVidia glasses. They don't have a soft nose peice, but they are plenty comfortable. You can check the other thread for more reviews of course.
The suedo stereo effect happens, but turning 3D on and off is a quick fix.
It would be really nice if the Ultra-clear ir version suppored the 3DXL ir emitter. That would be a really nice setup.
I received mine today using a Mitsubishi wd-65736. Looks great aside from the polarization rainbows in the corners. Black looks truly black now, also stayed connected through the ps3 sizzle trailer with abundant white. I had my doubts. I tried them with the shades and blinds open and they worked ok while the sun was behind a cloud but in full sunlight it had issues. 3D is meant for a dark room anyway so this is not a big deal. These glasses would be great for company and the real 3D fan of the house gets the $175 CrystalEyes 5.
Ps.
The bag and the glasses are labeled ultra-clear dlp link.
Well they changed the pricing again. You now can buy 1 thru 4 as well as multiples of 5. However the price is higher than it was. Maybe the original pricing was only for preorders? So 4 sets are now about 20 dollars more than when i bought mine. The bridge is hard plastic but quite comfortable btw.
The first time I got suedo stereo (before I realized I could just turn 3D off and back on to fix it) I just flipped the glasses over. They fit just fine that way too.
Has anyone compared the $60 Link variety to the Optoma DLP Link glasses yet?
