Didn't one of the houses in the last series have them, but incorpoated into the windows.

So basically it's a glass version of a panel heater?? Hmm...

The transparent ones are electric. 'Reduce your energy costs' - er, no.
Looks like they do do a 'glass' radiator for wet heating - it's just a radiator with a painted glass sheet in front of it - could be replicated quite cheaply, but you'd need sunglasses.

As the iPod was basically a tweaked version of an already established MP3 player.

If these costed anywhere near the cost of a standard radiator, I wouldn't think twice

Yesbut, the cost of electricity also far outweighs the cost of gas... Hardly an advancement.

Indeed, although I don't think a glass one would suit our place, as it's about 130 yrs old... There's no denying they look swish.

Ah right, I thought they'd look pretty crap with rusty brown CH water going through them!
