BIKE: rear-view bike helmets

[Thorne]

The site's photos of "what you see" don't look bad at all--a view of behind
and the lanes left and right of the rider.  No price is listed I could find,
but I'd guess that this is a pretty expensive alternative to the
helmet/eyeglass-mounted $15 or so mirror or the handlebar-mounted mirror.

Caveat:  as the site says  "We still, however, encourage cyclists to make that
all-important check over their shoulders before making any manoeuvres."  That
check has at least two purposes, both important; it's to check what's going on
behind and to show those behind you that you intend to make a maneuver.

OK, this looks pretty interesting.  A helmet with a build-in set of mirrors 
to give you a rear view.  Has anyone ever seen/used/heard of this?
