stereopsis- The image you see on your computer screen will be 2d whereas this true mirror shows your reflection in 3d. You would need two webcams perfectly aligned at eye width as well as the appropriate software and computer monitor to truly see your 3d true reflection using a webcam.
resolution- Because the true mirror has no resolution (other than the wavelength of light that is) you will only be able to see yourself as others truly see you using a mirror like this. I don't care how HD your video is, you lose some of the magic when you're experiencing something through a screen rather than your own two eyes.
I've wanted one of these things for years and finally worked up the nerve to drop 200 smackers on it for my dad's birthday present this year. The price tag definitely feels expensive as f*** when you pull this thing out of the box but I didn't pay for the plastic, glass and metal, I paid for the experience and I can tell you the product delivers as promised on that front.
I would have given it the full 5 if it didn't feel so cheap and flimsy. The plastic box is not even solid and you can feel the sides flex in when you lift it up. I would have been fully satisfied with my purchase if it had come in a nicer box, even at the cost of a $25-50 price raise. This thing in wood would truly be a magical object that me or my father would keep around a treasure for the rest of time. It might have even become a family heirloom. I cannot see that happening with something that feels so damn cheap when you pick it up. Instead it will probably sooner or later be put away in a closet except maybe for special occasion like kids coming over for the holidays; the black plastic has visible defects from the molding process and is not exactly aesthetically pleasing. Then the case will probably accidentally crack during a move or something and that will be that. I do not regret the purchase, the object might not have felt worth the $200 but the experience was certainly worth every penny.

WHAT IS THIS REAL OPTICAL DISTORTION I MENTIONED ABOVE?
An image of an object in a mirror will appear shorter in the horizontal plane if you tilt the mirror (along the vertical axis) from the normal 90 degree angle to the object to a 45 degree angle to the object.
Why will this cause an exagerated distortion of a face in a true mirror which is tilted along the vertical plane by 45 degrees to the face?
The true mirror tilted at angle of 45 degrees to your face will cause an optical distortion in the horizontal plane but no optical distortion in the vertical plan.
If you connect a vertical line to a horizontal line the connecting line will be tilted at a certain angle; this connecting line is pretty much a slighly asymmetrical face (one eye slightly higher than the other eye; etc.) if the horizontal line is now shortened while the vertical line remains the same length the connecting line will become tilted at a greater angle; this is why a slightly asymmetical face appears more asymmetrical in the true mirror as tilting the true mirrors at a 45 degree angle to the face will distort the face massively in the horizontal plane and not distort the face in the vertical plane. YOUR VERTICAL PROPORTIONS ARE MAINTAINED PRETTY MUCH THE WAY YOUR BRAIN REMEMBERS THEM IN TYPICAL REVERSING MIRROR THAT IS ALWAYS ANGLED TO YOUR FACE AT 90 Degrees WHILE YOUR HORIZONTAL PROPORTIONS ARE DISTORTED (SHORTER) FROM THE WAY YOUR BRAIN REMEMBERS THEM IN THE REVERSING MIRROR.
