Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Don't call me Ishmael; Don't call me Ray/Jay; Don't call me late for supper; Feel free to call me stupid. Priding myself on doing extensive product research and item comparisons, I completely screwed the pooch this time. (Can I print that?) The instructions for these glasses (I bought two pair.) is printed in the tiniest font I've yet (not clearly) seen. It literally took me using both reading glasses and a magnifying glass to read. Anyway, the booklet of instructions says (Where are those damned reading glasses?): 1. Turn on the TV, and then move the glasses within 19.5 inches of the TV. 2. Press the power button on the 3D glasses briefly. The 3D glasses will power on and pairing will start. 3. The message "3D glasses are connected to TV" will be displayed on the TV screen when the pairing is successfully completed. My TV displayed squat - repeatedly. Here's where the stupid part comes in. After trying fruitlessly and frustratedly for about 45 minutes (okay, maybe more like an hour), I gave up and resorted to reading previous consumer ratings of these 3D glasses on Amazon. Somehow I had missed the reviewer who actually knew what he was doing, and very smartly wrote, unless you have a Samsung TV, other TV brands won't display the successful pairing statement. However, the pairing will still probably have been successful. I returned to the TV, popped Prometheus into the DVD player, turned on the glasses and sure enough I was watching 3D! This will possibly be my last product review. Why would anyone waste their time reading what I think!
