The Register (http://www.theregister.co.uk/) is reporting that 30 some companies (including Intel, Adobe and Microsoft) are working on a universal 3D file format (.u3d) which will be as common a format for 3D as MP3 is for audio.

"In particular, they hope that such a standard will allow 3D data to be more easily incorporated into other apps, such as web browsers, to make 3D imagery more widespread - and, in turn, boost demand for faster processors and graphics chips."

I guess my question would be: What kind of 3d are we talking about?
