No, not planning on getting this, but it is so cool. 

This is a mirror when not in use. But turn it on, bluetooth to your apple product, and you can select from live classes to join in, or on-demand classes with fitness professionals in several areas, such as Pilates, yoga, boxing, cardio, etc. Supposed to have a great surround sound system. You can see yourself with your class. There is fitness tracking. No more going to a gym. $1500.

1. Wow. What will they think of next?

3. The Peleton cycles do something like this, but

with a much smaller monitor.

5. Yeah, that's a beautiful system.

But when I saw the tab at the site for Financing, the Mirror is cheap if and when I've got $1500 to spare. Until then I'll just watch cycle scenery videos while on my stationary bike.

4. Neat idea, but I think we'll probably find out there are privacy issues with it

in the future. The same thing with Facebook's new tablet.

6. They said there is a clip to place over

the lens when not in use. My guess is that it could be unplugged when not in use.

But yes, I suppose there are privacy concerns. I hadn't heard about the facebook tablet.

7. wouldn't you always have to be.....standing in front of the mirror?

seems to defeat the purpose
