Mike,

Ya know I hadn't thought about the glare factor.Though
to be honest when I watch TV I usualy turn on my #2
"Theater Lamp" (Ok Technicly it's a Spider Lamp) and
this sits behind my TV in the corner and it stands like
8' tall. (See image below) so glare shouldn't be an
issue unless my drapes are open!



See the lamp in the background.
