the other day on one of the many blogs I read, there was a gadget that you put on a macbook pro that had mirrors and let it look the opposite direction. does anyone know what I'm talking about? I can't find the original post.

Thanks
Eric

Only available for purchase in the UK it seems. I tried to order and the only shipping options were to UK.
Now i know how everyone in Europe feels about 99% of product releases

If you check eBay after a while, I am willing to bet it will show up.

is it really spam if the guy is answering someone's question about their product? If someone who's unaffilated with the product answers then it's not spam? Doesn't make sense to me.

Charlie, thanks for letting us know it's available. I'm ordering one today.
Tuodor: How in god's name is this spam? Did he start the topic to drum up interest in some penile enhancement product? He's responding to other's interest in this product being sold worldwide. That's called a service, not spam.

Ridiculous comment Tuoder. Charlie was simply following referrals and answering questions. Take a seat in the back of the room and leave him be. If It wasn't for his "spam" post no one would have known a US store was up.

Concerning the price comment, if $30 is too much, then make your own. Otherwise, the mirror looks like a great toy to have handy when you need to flip the view during video chats.

Point taken, our problem is simply this: The exchange rate between UK pounds sterling and the US dollar is unusually bad right now (if you are in the USA). We manufacture in the UK and these things make a difference. I can totally understand your point, for years British buyers of Apple kit (like me) had to put up with the same problem - only the other way around!

The answer could be to set up a licensed manufacturing operation in the States, which would save US customers money, and also save the planet the environmental cost of chucking hardware across the Atlantic in airplanes.

We're currently looking into this. Thanks for your feedback.
