  Haitex is not out of business, they have relocated to Charleston SC:

    Haitex Resources
    P.O. Box20609
    Charleston, SC 29413-0609
    (803) 881-7518

  I don't represent Haitex, but I did write the videogame packaged with the
glasses. If you don't use bright colors, the flicker isn't too bad. The larger
problem is ghosting (low extinction LC material). But I suspect that if the
e-ratio is brought up, so too will the flicker increase.
  There is also an X-Specs developer's kit available. I just received a copy
of it and it looks pretty good (they're selling a beta version). I'm using
the X-Specs in my real time stereo simulation system (all custom software)
and they work pretty good. I'm getting 30 frames/sec with simple terrain.
Any questions about stereo 3D on the Amiga, fire away.
