Would be better to just have one screen for academic purposes IMO.
But at least it's a bigger screen device--one step closer to someone making a 12"+ single screen tablet with stylus for those of us who need to read and mark up normal letter sized documents etc.

absolutely...the size is not an issue because this looks to be a real computing device not a tablet...for me it fills that need where my references really must have two pages viewable or there is just a ton of back and forth or all the books much be reformatted to conform to a one page paradigm...heck it was just about 10-15yrs back when they finally started getting the two page layouts right...
I like it, but it's at best a gen 1 device and I have forever sworn off gen 1 devices anymore as they are at best, beta hardware, even with smaller companies trying to make a name. Let them work it out a couple generations (maybe 18-mo max these days) then I'll bite...sure will be interesting to see the Tegra 2 in this thing.
It would be nice if you could decouple the panels and use them independently when the need exists...but that, like everything else, takes time...
