Would you like a ''Luxo Jr.'' mirror
By ron carlson, Insanely Great Mac
August 20th 2002
A Japanese company has created a mirror that mimics the styling of Apple''s consumer
desktop
Shinza, a company that specializes in importing Japanese products to the US, is
offering the iMirror -- a mirror with a base, adjustable arm and "screen" (the mirror)
that''s a knock-off of Apple''s LCD iMac.
"Who wouldn''t love a mirror modelled after the iMac G4?" asks Shinza''s website.
"[An] excellent complement to your bedroom dresser or your computer desk. Also makes
for a terrific gift!"
The website states that a limited production run of the $24.95 iMirror is currently
underway and that the product will likely sell-out quickly. The company expects to
fill be able to fill iMirror orders within 30 days.
Analysis: It''s highly unlikely Apple''s legal department will let this product reach
market. Then again, maybe they don''t have any IPR protection for a mirror that "just
happens" to look like an iMac.
Will you order one?
