Amazon 3D Smart Phone

There has been increased level talks that Amazon is getting ready to manufacture and release 3D Smart Phones from its Lab126 initiative, as per WallStreet. 

It is reported that Amazon is "developing a wide-ranging line-up of gadgets," including two smartphones, one of which will have a 3D screen. Citing multiple anonymous sources, the Journal says the 3D-capable smartphone will not require special glasses and may even let users navigate just by moving their eyes.




In addition to the two smartphone models, Amazon is also said to be working on a device for streaming music and a set-top box, the latter of which was also reported by Bloomberg BusinessWeek last month



The high-end smartphone has a screen that enables users to see 3D images without special glasses, people familiar with the company's plans told the newspaper. The smartphone would use retina-tracking to project images that float above the screen and appear in 3D from all angles, according to the sources.



Not surprisingly, Amazon is not commenting on the reports. Wall Street doesn't seem too sure what to make of the 3D smartphone idea. Amazon's stock price jumped from $258.80 to $263.50 before settling back to $260 in Thursday trading.
