What do you mean by "real-time mirroring"? If you are not yet in production and are looking for something that'll be ready in the next six months, you might want to check out the Slony-I project on gborg.postgresql.org. But even that is not "real time", in that there is a gap between when a tuple is COMMITTED on the primary node and when it appears on other nodes.
