Lightbulb Mirror Screen Driver/Software

As I drove home in the dark with the satnav on I caught the reflection of it in the screen and thought, This would be cool If I could leave the phone on the dash and I could set the display to Mirror making the reflection readable on the windscreen Kind of like a Heads up display.

Is this possible with windows mobile? can anyone code a screen mirror application that works like the screen rotation apps that work with the internal gyro sensor?
I have noted that the idea has been kicjked around but nothing solid has come of it.

Exclamation Thanks

I'm actually looking for an app that mirrors the display so if you held a mirror next to the screen you would be able to read it ok from the mirror..

I saw a picture of an HTC WinMo phone that was broken and was showing the screen mirrored once, which would indicate that the hardware can support this functionality.

Is it possible that the configuration for the display driver would have a registry option for something like this? I know that some webcam drivers in Windows have hidden registry entries for this (I've had to track them down in the past due to cameras mounted in strange ways and people wanting mirrored images instead of photograph style).

Edit: I saw it here http://www.modaco.com/content/blacks...creen-problem/
