1080p LCD comes with a waterproof remote, turns into mirror when turned off.
01.29.2008 — Let's be honest here: outside of your bedroom, the bathroom is probably the most used room in your house.
It's OK -- there's nothing to be ashamed of in that. We all do it.
So if you're spending a lot of time on the john, it's only natural that you'll want a nice TV installed to keep you busy.
Aquavision, a UK-based manufacturer of bathroom televisions, has the solution: a 57" in-wall waterproof LCD TV (via
Born Rich).
The
AVF 57-4LCD (pdf) has 1080p resolution, 2 HDMI ports and both digital and analog tuners. The set, which has an RS-232 port, uses a Mirrorvision finish, which turns the glass into a mirror when turned off.
The set is being introduced at
Integrated Systems Europe (ISE), currently taking place in Amsterdam. Aquavision also has five other in-wall waterproof TVs on display at ISE, with sizes of 17", 19", 26", 32" and 40".
The unit comes with two remotes -- one waterproof and one not. If you'd like a waterproof universal remote,
RTI introduced one back at CEDIA.

I want one!
Maybe I’ll actually shave more regularly.
I’m surprised at the large size they’ve chosen, but I think it’s pretty cool!
