You are correct! The first generation of active 3D TVs were rife with problems, but the second generation has fixed many of them. However, you must still keep in mind that even though crosstalk does not happen often anymore, you will still see it. In addition, some people can still notice flickering in their 3D glasses. Of course, this is not the case for everyone, so as I tell anyone on this forum who needs TV suggestions, check out both passive 3D and active 3D in PERSON to see which one you prefer. And if you can, try to watch for more than 2-3 minutes. I would recommend a minimum of 30 minutes in order to fully gauge your appreciation of either technology.
With that said, what size TV would you prefer? Remember that bigger is not always better. If you're using it in a tiny room, there's absolutely no point in getting a 55 inch TV.
