Starwars to be re-released in 3D!

Looks like George Lucas (along with a bunch of others) are falling in love with the new 3D technology. Lucas has announced that he plans to re-release all the the starwars movies in 3D. He hopes to have the first film ready for the 30th anniversary of the original "Star Wars" movie in 2007 and that he would then rerelease one "Star Wars" film per year in 3-D.

From the article: "Lucas was joined by James Cameron, Robert Zemeckis, Robert Rodriguez and Randal Kleiser. Peter Jackson joined the group via a pretaped 3-D segment. They all implored the exhibition community to invest in digital projectors, which would allow theatres to show their upcoming movies in 3-D."

The technology is all based on Texas Instruments DLP projectors (of which there are still only 2 in Denver...lame...). I want to know if I can bring the 3D movies home if I have a DLP TV/Projector. That would rock!
