Despite the fact that IMAX is a forty year old company, they have been but a minor player on the film exhibition market. The Toronto based company operates only 160 screens in North America, many of those being in institutional venues considered inadequate to meet the needs of commercial releases. They were only able to come up with 94 screens

But someone told me that IMAX 3D can be done WITHOUT glasses these days...which would make 3D much more appealing to me.

I was impressed with IMAX digital 3D, wearing he IMAX 3D polarized glasses watching "Space 3D" and the 2D movie "Kung Fu Panda" in cropped to 2.40:1 wide IMAX digital. Both were very impressive as was the sound, which you could actually feel as it rushes past you.
2K is not supposed to be as good as 4K projection, as 4K is four times sharper, resolution wise, but the digital IMAX 2K looked awesome....
I also saw Real D's "Journey to the Center of the Earth" in 2K 3D at the same AMC theatre. It was on a 1.85:1 screen which didn't quite touch the walls and definately not the floors and ceiling like the IMAX digital projection screen does which has the aspect ratio of 1.9:1. Real D digital 2K was also awesome--so IMAX is going to have very stiff competition with their new Digital IMAX system.
But, all-in-all, I think from what I've seen of digital presentations, digital cinema will soon be replacing film. That makes me sad as I love film and am fascinated with photography and cinematography, and as an archival medium, film will probably always be around, so what-me-worry, it's not such a big deal after all....
By the way--I want to see a digital presentation in IMAX of "Gone With The Wind" for the 2009 70th anniversary of the film. It's original 3-strip camera negatives are preserved in 4K resolution, so a digital IMAX presentation would be very apt indeed.
