I understand that there is a bug in the current version of the Sony 1304 which
prevents pictures of boats going under bridges from looking good.  My calls to
Sony support indicate that this will be fixed in the next shipments.  As for
the NEC 3D, it has no problem with boats under bridges, but I heard there was
a difficulty with planes flying over densely-populated areas, something to do
with FAA regulations, no doubt...   :-)
