pDual-screen tablet, interesting. Yesterday Toshiba announced their forthcoming dual-screen limited-edition Libretto, which will be produced this summer. Each panel is not quite iPad-sized; screens are each about 7 inches diagonally./p
pThe dual-screen configuration makes for some potentially interesting interface capabilities, as you can see in the demo video below. Do yourself a favor and fast-forward to 0:57–and try to ignore the overcaffeinated interviewer’s constant, inarticulate interruptions. The Libretto demo ends around 3:30, at which point they switch over to talking about Toshiba’s 3D laptop, which you can also skip (there’s no visual demo)./p

pOur not-difficult-to-make prediction: It’s just a matter of time before some joker on YouTube spoofs this, lamely we imagine, with two iPads and some duct tape./p
