IMHO a dual screen offers no advantage over a good window manager.
Interface advantages such as natural flips will be easily replicated with flex displays, which will finally allow up to A4 sizes without sacrificing mobility. |
What someone should do is engineer a reader that has the ability to hing/connect to a second reader on the left and right side. This way, you can buy a second reader (third reader?) if you want a two page reader. The interconnect would allow the readers to operate in tandem with a single book, or display seperate books if desired.
