Have you been holding out for a 3D TV? TigerDirect is about to reward you for your patience. The online retailer has a very sweet deal on Samsung's 50-inch PN50C490 3D plasma. Buy that HDTV at the discounted price of $899.98, and they will also throw in Samsung's 3D Starter Kit. That kit alone is a $399 value! Check out the package on TigerDirect's product page:

This 50-inch plasma TV is listed as a 720p image, but is slightly better, with a native resolution of 1366x768 pixels. It also boasts 600 Hz Subfield Motion technology, a Game Mode, Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) support, and three HDMI inputs.

Oh -- and of course, it can do 3D. However, you're going to need a few other items. Thankfully, this package comes with a few of those items, all for free. Inside the included Samsung 3D Starter Kit, you'll find two pairs of 3D glasses, as well as Blu-ray 3D copies of three IMAX movies: Galapagos, Into the Deep and Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs. That's not all, though. There's also a mail-in coupon, for a free copy of How to Train Your Dragon on Blu-ray 3D.

This package is pretty complete for the budding 3D enthusiast. However, to view those Blu-ray 3D movies, you're going to need a Blu-ray 3D player. You can easily add in the Samsung BD-C5900 Blu-ray 3D Player, which TigerDirect has on sale for $206.99 shipped. Find out more about this player on TigerDirect's product page:

Samsung's BD-C5900 can play Blu-ray 3D discs, and features access to Internet@TV web apps.

Samsung's BD-C5900 can play Blu-rays, Blu-ray 3D discs, and even upconvert your existing DVD collection. It also comes ready to hook to your Wi-Fi network (via Samsung's WIS09ABGN adapter). That access could come in handy for tapping into Internet@TV. Even if your TV doesn't supply access, this player can provide on-demand content from Netflix, Twitter, VUDU, YouTube, and much more.
