Thats pretty cool, but I really don't see any other benifits other than the mobile phone. It's not like people are going to buy double-sideded TV's, are they?

of course they will, then they can have the TV in the middle of the room, couches on opposite sides, and then 2 shows on at once :D

Too true, i believe i mentioned in the Samsung vs Other Brand TV topic that even my e900's screen is excellent. High resolution and crystal clear. Can't want much better than that.

I have a SyncMaster 920Nx 19inch and love it to pieces, my old CRT was also a Samsung best screens and they don't hurt your eyes like most of the other brands.

Fancy I wonder how much a TV like that would cost lol. If you made a TV with double sides it might be good for a hotel lobby or something.

maybe not if you have surround sound speakers playing on each end of the room. keep in mind the room has to be pretty big though. :P

I think l3lueMage idea was quite cool and you'd only need one TV instead of two and could keep everyone happy :)
