No, the current active 3D LCD and Plasma TV's need special transmitters that sync with the television's screen refresh to switch between the two eye's viewpoints. This infrared transmitted signal is picked up by LCD shutter glasses. The passive 3D model has a polarizing filter built into the screen and a special LCD panel. In the case of Blu-Ray movies or PS3 games, the player connects with the screen via HDMI and confirms the compatible 3D capability before playing the content.
LG only make passive 3D television. They do not supply any models that are active 3D.
Plasma TVs can be in 3D. Samsung and Panasonic both make Plasma 3D TVs, as seen on www.bestbuy.com. The Samsung plasma 3D TV seems to be a little less expensive than the LCD TVs.

There are some people who do not tolerate 3D imaging techniques. It's worth auditioning several different brands of television to see if there are any that you are able to tolerate.

Clearly, if Panasonic won that award then other brands didn't. That would suggest that no other 3D televisions are beating Panasonic. However, if you are looking to purchase, make sure you look at several brands. 3D television can be a very personal choice so make sure you buy the one that you find the best.
The solution is to simply make sure the glasses are charged and that the television is set up correctly.
All 3D TV's include an option to turn the 3D effect off on the remote, or through the option menus.
Glasses for 3D television can be expensive. But remember that when you bought a 3D television, you were investing in a premium product and you were seeking performance rather than price. Any television purchase based just on price would be a low cost 2D television. Having invested in a nice 3D television, make sure you maintain the quality of the image with the correct glasses for it.
No. If it is not already 3D capable, there is no adapter available to make it so.
