    Smile TV turning into Mirror.

    The latest entry from Philips is its line of MiraVision televisions. These unique sets, designed to look like mirrors, offer dual functionality as both a reflective surface and a television. The sets, shown at CES 2006, will soon be available in 32 and 42-inch sizes, according to the company.

    So how do they work? A reflective surface inside the television becomes visible when the set is turned off, instantly turning the device into a mirror. MiraVision can even function simultaneously as a mirror and a television. Viewers can choose to display TV on half the set and turn the other half off, bringing out its instantly reflective qualities.
