Over Flow Rooms of the future

For those of you who have attended or visited large or growing churches, chances are you've run across the dreaded "Over-flow" room. This is usually a small room located just off the main sanctuary that is used to seat people who show up late or may have small kids. The rooms usually have one or more TV's and maybe even a projector, and the sound is terrible.

For the cutting edge church that wants to leave an impression on those unfortunate souls who show up late, the church should look into providing a "state of the art" overflow room with the following features.

Wide Stereo 3.1 or 5.1 surround sound. It's important to try to make the sound in the overflow sound as much if not better than the live sound in the main auditorium.
3d imaging (they are making great strides in glassless 3D imaging nowadays)
If you recently been paying attention to the 2010 CES expo, you've likely seen the Panasonic 3D camera.
Life size one camera shot of the speaker or minister (this usually requires at least an 10' wide screen.
