I played with one in a store today.
Having it set to anything except all the way 2D caused me some serious discomfort that lingered for a few minutes afterwards. And with the graphics set to 2D, all I saw were roughly PSP-quality graphics. I can't say it's worth remotely close to $249 for me.
That's what I felt first when I played it in the store as well but once you own one and see what depth level you're comfortable with you'll get it used to focusing different on 3D screens and you'll eventually graduate to the highest depth setting without too much discomfort.
I feel bad for the people who have discomfort with the 3D on. I played mine for two hours yesterday with almost max 3d and had no pain at all. It's a really great device for me at least...

in an article i read, nintendo's testers said you get used to it after a while. i believe this too, because when i first tried my 3ds on launch day, i would have to turn off the 3d after a short time. now i have it on max for hours with no problem whatsoever.
