Rumors are circling that RIM, creators of the famous BlackBerry, are about to dive into 3D mobile devices with their acquisition of ‘TAT’.
The concepts from TAT are pretty impressive for 3D maps and contacts list. Rumor has it that RIM is getting into the 3D game, which was one reason for acquiring TAT. Apparently, TAT has been working on 3D user interfaces for quite some time. As you can see from the videos below, TAT has integrated the phone’s accelerometer for smooth transitions.
Many of the comments from our earlier iPod 3D post apply here, such as how will they handle fingerprint smudges on a 3D Display?
If they can sort that out, see the demo below for what they might be doing.

Doesn’t say “stereoscopic” to me, more like “gyroscopic”.
