So anything came out of this project yet? I'm curious to see the see-thru mirror you've ordered.

I don't have a spare kindle for this project, but I do have a spare Android phone, the double-reflection of the multi-pane windshield prevents me from using it tho.

I received the mirror sheet, unpacked, looked at it, and said:
"that's neat" (to myself).

Put back in protective shipping sleeve and there the project sets.

I also have a 7 inch tablet with one of those high brightness, IPS screens.
I intend to try both the Kindle and the tablet.

If it would just quit raining here...
The weather has been like Seattle in the raining season (the only season they have).

Came packed with a company catalog, which included advertisements for "hidden TV" applications.
TV OFF - looks like a decoratively framed mirror -
TV ON - now its a decoratively framed TV.

And if your TV model can be used as a computer monitor - -
