Mirror plasma?

Anyone remember that 'mirror' TV in the bathroom last year? Would it be possible to do the same with a plasma in the lounge?

So that when its switched off, you get a nice large, landscape mirror over the fireplace, and when its switched on, you see the plasma picture?

 

It should indeed be acheiveable.

I'm expecting to see a housing for a 42" plasma around CEDIA Uk this year, designed for wet environments.

If you give me a shout nearer the show (June) I'll see what I can find out for you.

 

We have LCDs up to 30" that turn into mirrors when turned off. Not on our sites but I could get some info over to you...

 

Sounds interesting Liam.
Who makes them?

 

I'll get some details over this afternoon and let you guys know...

 

Can't find what I was looking for but it's basically exactly as it sounds - a TFT panel that becomes a mirror when you turn it off! We do 6" and up for bathrooms, clubs etc, 30" 16:9 for large advertising and home use, and various in between! Usually works out about 5 grand or so for the 30"....

 

Is it the Philips one ?

That is a seriously cool idea, imagine how many wive's would be won over with that idea!

 

go into the general hardware forum if you're still interested it is now in the news section.

 

whats the quality of the picture like...or is it a product that offers a compromise between functional and entertainment?

 

I now where you can get a 42" Mirror Plasma from if you need any info i can provide.

 

Ditto. We distribute the Aquavision waterproof TV's at work (Bathroom, Kitchen, Towelrail and plasma housings and glass).

It's becoming very popular the mirror glass now.
