Water-repellent side mirror coating

I came across this interesting video about water-repellent mirror coating. Anybody think this is worth it?

If so, "siv clear" seems to be a japanese product only. Is there a similar product here in the states?

If you turn on the mirror heater in the rain it actually dries the mirror off...........
