Initial theories are now being suported by research, suggesting that mobile phone usage does indeed lead to an increase in the potential for brain tumours. This is particularly true for users under 20 year of age, who use mobiles for more than one hour per day. Let us tread cautiously.

Don't get me wrong I appreciate the visual effect but it does leave me feeling a bit unwell..does anyone else experience this side effect? The other thing is does the 3D get in the way of the story telling, The Godfather in 3D? No thanks!! Maybe it’s just me, but I find the whole 3D experience a bit nauseating after 2 hrs.

Naturally I read closely the associated article by Mark Pesce and read all the comments made on the ABC website. Frankly, Pesce's concept of "binocular dysphoria" appears to be something that he has made up and which has no basis in any published research or indeed any articles apart from those which in turn, reference Pesce. (google is useful in this respect) A neat example of the internet perpetuating an urban myth perhaps but a bit embarrassing for both the ABC and Encore to be seen as endorsing what seems to be a work of fiction by Mr Pesce.
