Sony is now taking pre-orders for their 3D LCD televisions, expected to first ship to stores in June. The hope is to lure you away from Samsung's own 3D LED LCD sets, launching tomorrow, and Panasonic's 3D Plasma sets, launching in May with a special deal that includes a 3D-ready Blu-ray player for free (the BDP-S470). In total Sony is offering nine different televisions, all LCD HDTVs and ranging in price from $2,600 to $5,500 and in size from 40" up to 60". Sony's televisions will come in two series - the LX900 sets will be promoted as full, 3D televisions with built-in transmitters and two sets of 3D glasses included. The HX800 series will be promoted as "3D Ready", meaning that the televisions are themselves 3D, but lack the needed accessories, the transmitter and glasses to complete the experience. The 3D glasses are being sold separately for $150 each while the transmitter will sell for $70. A bundle, containing two pairs of glasses and a transmitter will be available for $350. 

Here's the details on prices:

The LX900 Bravia Series includes a 40-inch, 46-inch, 52-inch and 60-inch and retail for $2,999.99, $3,499.99, $4,499.99, and $5,499.99.

The 52" and 60" models are special pre-orders only, meaning you have to go through Future Shop or SonyStyle stores for now until the end of the month when they will also be added to online and phone orders.

The HX800 Bravia Series (missing transmitter and glasses) include a 40-inch (KDL-40HX800), 46 (KDL-46HX800), and 55 (KDL-55HX800) retailing for $2,599.99, $2,999.99, and $3,799.99. These are only available for pre-order through Future Shop and SonyStyle stores today, but will be added for online and phone orders later this month.
