But still, I offer an apology for hijacking the thread. Now back to topic.

please don't worry about it, Eric. liseuse is more and more commonly used on this forum, and generally we are very glad to have such a diverse membership, even though not everyone speaks perfect english.

It's a strange coincidence but as I'm waiting for my first ebook reader (used my PDA so far) I was thinking last night how cool it would be if there was one with two screens that would allow me to hold it like a real book and read pages alternating from left to right like a real book. If the pages are slow to load, my understanding is that with Vizplex we're still talking between 740ms and 1s, having a dual screen would non-stop reading.
For some it could be useful to have the library on one screen and the texts on the other one, that wouldd also be nice when reading downloaded rss feeds. You could have the feeds index on a screen and the news on the other one which would make navigating the news a lot easier.

interestingly, i recently saw this video which speculates about "possible" and "probable" ways technology for digital books could evolve in the very near future, and show some very interesting dual-screen uses. warning to astra, the dialogue of the video is all in french.
