You mean like this one? (JAL minipod) Not sure if it's fully-flat. (p.s. apparently not...)
Or this one? (Emirates) I believe they have so many different Business seats I've no idea if this is meant to go fully-flat.
And UA with some seats facing backwards.
If you look at this one carefully (Continental Diamond) your feet go under the seat in front of you.
And the following text gives it away.

By the way, that screen shot looks horrible. Those are not the actual colors. The actual seat is very nice to sit/lounge/sleep in and looks pleasing as well.

On the 777, EK's C seat is nearly fully flat. I think there is a slight angle, but it is hardly noticeable. It is fully flat, as I understand it, on their A380.

The 777 C seat (on aircraft with suites in F) has an angle and it is noticeable.

From all the (non-public) trip reports that I read the test version was fully flat, but the test run revealed that it was too narrow in perception which they have now corrected.

Gee I really liked the full flat bed - I did not find it too narrow at all - now when I comparte the seats on trial to the LX C flatbeds or the UA C flatbeds - I think they are narrow! If you want a really wide seat/flatbed I'm afraid you'll just have to fly first class - one would think there has to be some distinction between C and F in terms of the hard product
