And here we thought the ideals and funky ideas of Japanese vision was already dampened by Chinese generics and the standardization of technology. The recent Onkyo dual screen LCD netbook proved that the Japs still had something great to infuse in these computers, and now just when we've seen the last Libretto back in 2005 shoved out of the game with the official debut of netbooks, Toshiba has decided to resuscitate the line again and introduced the dual screen W100. So Microsoft's Courier was thrown into the back burner... so what? Toshiba went along with a similar if not the same idea and went ahead with the mass production.
This computer comes with two 7-inch multi-touch LCDs with a resolution of 1024 x 600, an Intel Pentium U5400 CPU running at 1.2GHz, 62GB of SSD, 2GB memory, 4G / Wi-Max, Wi-Fi N, Bluetooth 2.1, 1x USB port, 1.02 megapixel camera, and Windows 7 Home Premium. It only weighs in at 699g (or 899g with the enhanced battery).
There's also six different keyboard overlays to choose from and can be used as if you were holding a book, or in a more traditional notebook form - there's an accelerometer to take the hassles away from that rotation job.
As for price, we're looking at a thousand bucks in United States dollars.
