The screen is possibly the biggest part with the circuitry to drive it. If you only have one processor and one battery you would need additional circuitry/wiring between the two which would be across the hinged part and susceptible to breakage. No hinge? Then one large screen with a dual page display is what you have got.
Still I am reasonably sure you will get your wish sooner or later. Two devices communicating wirelessly or across one wired connection should not be that hard to implement one would think.
Some enterprising person could probably do it now with existing devices running Linux if they were into a bit of programming pain.
