Anyone ever seen a digital rear-view?

Rear view mirrors are ugly. On sportbikes and nakeds especially so. So has anyone ever seen a rear-mounted, rear-facing camera matched to a small (e.g., 4.3" like a GPS) flat panel LCD? Seems like it'd do the trick and eliminate the need for the mirrors.

Just getting back into riding so I will confess plainly I don't know what I'm talking about. But -- mirrors just seem kinda old-school.

It was a 5" screen and the rear camera was a Wide angle with night vison.....

My first set up was with a 2.5 lcd screen, and you really couldnt tell what the cars were behind you....plus you can glance down at the larger screen and still be safe....

My issue would be the stuff that's practically beside you, that would be closer than the view of the camera? Would you be missing some stuff, possibly making a blindspot worse? I look over my shoulder often, anyway, just curious.

My camera has like a 170 degree viewing field, so you can see quite a bit.
