Sweet! Imagine portability with 2 screens… hopefully they can pack a better battery on that one to have at least half the battery life of an Asus EEE PC 1000HE.

I'm not sure about the state of the technology for making screens significantly thinner — OLEDs, perhaps? They might be better since they don't need a separate backlight. The structural elements for holding them probably adds thickness, just as the structure for a convertable tablet does. Overall, I'm not sure if this will end up being a curiosity or the wave of the future, but it sure is cool looking.

BTW, Lenovo ships a super-high-end 17″ ThinkPad with a second screen. But the second screen is much smaller and oriented vertically. And no one expects a 17″ mobile workstation to be thin or light or have decent battery life anyway, so it seems like a good fit there.

This machine will be great for the business traveler that actually does work when not in the office.

Interesting idea and smart looking setup. But I'd rather see the 3rd generation o such tech where the screens are lighter thinner and thus take up less space and weight.

The way I see it multiple screen laptops will be one of many solutions that might be in use in the coming years. One screen when you just need that two when you need more room or multiple views.

energy efficiency wouldn't be an issue if you stick to the dual screen usage at home (gaining a considerable work area), still you would have the choice when you have to rely on the battery… interesting concept!
