An awful lot depends on your demographic and what you're trying to sell.

If you think your customers will really appreciate the glitz and are
sufficiently tech-savvy to tend to have newer browsers - then by all
means do something fancy - but have a fallback page for older browsers
that is basically a static version of the 'main' site.
