hiding televisions

Here's a very discourse-heavy question.

Does anyone know examples of clever ways to hide flatscreen tv's?

I saw a company that put them behind framed mirrors. When the TV was turned on, the mirror became as cleas as glass. Pretty brilliant! I don't remember thier name, but the company was at the California Design Boom Show in Santa Monica last year.

I want one of those to hide the entrance to my bat cave. Actually kind of cool for a small place with limitied storage.

the bookcase was sort of wack.... flipping bookcases have been around for years...secret entrances/etc........ plus it looks like you have to drop the side filler panels and rotate yourself....work...... just flush mount into a wall and hang a picture over it.........

Actually, check out the video on the site. The pannels slip back when the unit begins to rotate.

i guess i did a pre-mature post.......darn........

i would still find a way to mount it .....maybe a thin shelving unit with a fake face panel or something......

the bookcase ,to me, seems to be an overkill......

I've never seen the point of hiding tv's. I can't imagine people would hide them after day-to-day use and I bet most who would buy a 60" plasma would want to show if off when thier friends/family come over. Plus, it seems like the tv eventually ends up getting turned on when you have people over anyway, especially if you know anyone who's a sports fan.
