“We’ve had great response to our $50 iZ3D monitor rebate from AMD
customers and an equally strong chorus of requests for the same discount
from NVIDIA customers that prefer to have the 3D technology inside the
display instead of inside active glasses,” states David Chechelashvili, VP
Marketing for iZ3D, Inc. iZ3D’s approach to 3D places all the 3D technology
in the monitor so that users need only wear passive polarized glasses. This
enables more participants at a significantly lower price to enjoy 3D in
ambient-lit rooms without headaches, fatigue, or eyestrain.
The current rebate offer runs through June 15, 2009 making an iZ3D gaming
display solution even more affordable for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day or as a
graduation present. Rebates can apply to purchases online at iZ3D.com or at
any retail store or authorized iZ3D online reseller. Terms and conditions
apply.
iZ3D has also added new features to its website including a rebate center
where visitors can check for current offers and discounts.
“We value our 3D customers and want to make their iZ3D experience as
satisfying as possible. Since our website outage we have been improving our
website while preparing totally new web experience based on customer
feedback for release this summer. Our goal is for our website to provide a
3D experience where consumers can get immersed in 3D through education,
experience, purchasing, support, and socialization. We are also diligently
working to provide cutting-edge customer service,” said David Chechelashvili,
VP Marketing for iZ3D Inc.
The new iZ3D “3D Bucks Rebate Center” provides a listing of all available
rebates.
