There are occasions when I would find a twin screen very useful.
When I'm teaching Plato I use the Loeb Classical Library editions, which have the Greek on the verso pages, and an English translation on the recto. It would be useful to have all of Plato on an electonic device which could display in that way.
Similarly, when I'm proofing scans for the MR library, I'm tied to the computer, because I like to have the scan on half the screen and the OCR'd doc file on the other half. With a device like this I could sit on the sofa, or work on the train more easily.
