I've been thinking about going with
Dell XT2. Instead of complementing my current gear, just cut my laptop and e-reader out of the picture. I'd need a complementary desktop to get my gaming back, but that's always been the case no matter how long I've been lying to myself.
For about $900(maybe even cheaper) for something that's "supposed" to be on par with the x200, it doesn't seem all that bad.

That would blow the crappy iPad toy out of the water.

I could actually see two screen being a killer device for college and high school students. Textbooks aren't getting any cheaper and if someone could get all the majors on board at a decent price (not sure if ipad did), you'd have a screen for books and another for note taking aside from highlighting your book. Textbook makers aren't getting a cut of resale books, so lowering the price of books(that you can't resale) help blows up the sales of e-textbooks. This is instead of selling them at $150 price tags.
I'd imagine one screen could be Capacitive and the other Resistive and you could flip it depending on what handed you are. Also if it had a better folding mechanic you could say, use it like how these tablet/laptops work. Or better yet pop the screens apart. Two people could have it where one can draw or write, while the other reads a book or surf the net. Wait, did I just turn the courior into the edge thingy out there?
