I really want this tv for the 2 player type screen alone but is it 1080p?

i am going to say with a degree of certainty that it is, i can't see them releasing a 720p version

Yes it is, Jack Tretton said as much.

Yep 1080p. I don't have much use for it now but i love that 2 player 1 screen thing. That is seriously bad ass.

I am toying with the idea of getting a 3D enabled PC screen for a while now. Currently playing on a 24'' 1080p. I was thinking about going 28'' though. Either way, attractive offering. I am intrigued.

Yeah that 2 players 1 screen thing is pretty sexy.

I don't see what there is to gain from having 1080p on a 24" display; you wouldn't tell the difference between it and 720p. The screen isn't big enough.

I saw this and thought I really wanted it. Then I realized, oh I don't give a shit about 3D.

I might get it if it has really good speakers.

You don't need that Sony TV or to be stuck with a 24" display. It's not even something that the PS3 does. You just need a game that does split screen. Other 3D enabled TVs have the same ability. I posted about it yesterday.
 
  

At first I was considering getting this because I'm in the market for a new tv, but 3D isn't really a selling point for me and I could get a much larger tv at that price point.

I'm really thinking of getting a 3DTV before Uncharted 3 comes out, since even the most skeptical writers I know (in regards to 3D) who have seen it say the game looks amazing in 3D. I'm seriously thinking about getting this display in particular since I would need the glasses and plan on getting Resistance 3 anyway. I'll look at what prices are for 3DTVs when the time comes.

I think it's a gimmick, I don't buy televisions based on how often I have people round my house playing a split screen game, which is not often, if I have people round we usually play something like Chu Chu Rocket or fighting games. 
 
and really, $500? Dude, I can get a 42" 1080P plasmafor just 100 bucks more. I'm pretty sure you can get LCDs for even cheaper probably with 3D too. In my experience Panasonic make better televisions than Sony as well. 
 
Edit: Also, I bet the games that support this tech are going to be in a very small minority, maybe, just maybe this'll be widespread with the PlayStation 4 but I doubt it very much, glasses 3D will probably be dead by then.

Can anyone explain exactly how they are get two images at once, is it through how the 3-D glasses are use?

You obviously didn't read my post :)  You can do this with other 3D TVs, it's not special tech. You just need a game with split-screen on any console.

That's weird...you'd think it would have been made a bigger deal of, now a lot of people are gonna think it's a Sony thing.

I was actually in the market for a TV (I haven't had one for a year and I miss my PS3) and was excited about the announcement, but I think it'll be too long before it comes out, so I may have to pass on it. It sounds about the perfect size (tiny Japanese apartment here), quality, and I remain curious (albeit skeptical) about 3D.

Maybe when it comes out, I'll sell the used 32 incher I got and swap for this, 32 inches is simply just a bit too big for me.

I own like way too many hdtvs, i'm not in the mood to buy another one. But this is a sony screen, don't mind having a third. Also it's like $500 I think? it comes with a 3d glasses. While I don't care for 3d games, I do care alot for 3d blu rays. It should work on it. 
 
I don't know, I just want to comment about it, the screen is too small for me, but I don't mind using it close and as an affordable 3d solution for now. $500 is the same price i've spent on two videocards in sli, except one fried. But still, it's not that much, even a gtx 580 cost that much. Maybe when it drops like $50 i'll get it for sure.

I own a hd monitor that's enough for me

Considering that there's almost no PS3 games that even support 1080p, does it even matter?

It's quite cheap in some respects but I dont have the money for a TV as well as all the games coming out. Plus I'd probably go for a TV that was bigger.

It's not a TV if it doesn't have a TV tuner. Sony refers to it as a 3D display. 
It has 2 HDMI inputs, 1 set of component inputs, and 1 set of composite inputs according to CNET.
