      Hi guys,
      I love the smart mirror! Do you know any place in or around Freiburg, Germany (local) or online shops that ship to German addresses where I could get a mirror from that doesn’t cost too much? (I’m a poor student, you know)
      I don’t mind acrylic glass or even a good foil (I already tried a chinese one though, terrible result. Don’t waste those 3$!).
      Thanks!

        This vendor was mentioned some time ago. I will call some local glaziers, but will give myspiegel.de a chance if prices are far off.

          I have already contacted myspiegel a couple of weeks ago and they told me that their mirrors are not suitable for this project. According to them the glas materials is too dark. I think they received a lot of calls the last couple of months since this project was described on german television (“Galileo”).
          The only supplier I found in Stuttgart was Glass Flüss: http://fluess-glas.de/
          Guess I paid ~ 80€ for 50 x 50 cm. Hope that helps a bit.

            I also called a local glazier for the semitransparent mirror, they told me it would be around 80€ as well… I was looking for something rather like what they sell on cutplasticsheeting.co.uk (search for “two way acrylic mirror”), since that is much cheaper than a real mirror and supposed to be optically just as good.

                That’s interesting. This guy ( http://blog.tobias-weis.de/smarter-smartmirror/ ) uses the myspiegel.de mirror and is more than happy with it.

                    Adding one more link to a mirror glas from Pilkington - which in my personal opinion - would be a perfect solution:
                    http://asset manager-ws.pilkington.com/fileserver.aspx?cmd=get_file&ref=11395&cd=cd
                    I am living in Munich and we have already contacted quite a few glaciers in Munich trying to buy a magic mirror glas (even contacted one glacier in Rosenheim) and up to now we have not been successful.
                    Honestly I am attempted to buy the glas at myspiegel.de since - at least in the Munich area - it seems impossible to find a local glacier beeing capable to supply a spy mirror.
                    I have read the posts mentioning Stuttgart and Switzerland, however this is a little bit too far for me just to purchase the glas.
                    Any comments/ success story from someone in Munich area more than welcome

                      For what did you exactly ask?
                      Spionspiegel?
                      2-Wege-Spiegel?
                      Venezianischer Spiegel?

                      I made the experience that most off the glaciers had no clue but after i explained it or used the names above, they had some solution for me…

                        Thanks for the fast reaction:
                        We did ask for Spionspiegel and - after having the feeling that it might not be completely clear - explicitely for the Pilkington glas, however did not (yet) find someone capable to sell what we are looking for.
