Until a multi-gigapixel light field display becomes available, stereo viewing (without a device or "freeview training") will be a sticking point...

Behold Parallel Reality from Misapplied Sciences (my brother is CTO).

Here's a story about the technology from GeekWire, including demos . The catch is that the displays don't just give one person stereo -- you can have tens of thousands of people looking at the same display and each seeing different (even stereo) stuff -- all without glasses, etc.

The tech will be fairly cheap, but is initially targeting larger displays with modest resolution -- think stadium displays -- not small high resolution displays.
