Lots and lots of touch. It'll be introducing a veritable smorgasbord of equipment as the minutes roll on, but it's kicking things off with its Windows 7-based Iconia dual-screen laptop / tablet, a device we've seen before."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/lpt/auto/1290580874.usr17748.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>In the battle to remain relevant to perhaps more technically astute computer buyers (and perhaps to entice said buyers away from tablets), we have another laptop with two screens and a virtual multi-touch keyboard. Specifications are impressive, with Windows 64-bit Premium, Intel Core i5 processor, up to 4GB DDR3 RAM, two 14-inch LED-backlit multitouch LCD displays at 1366x768 protected by Gorilla<em>®</em>Glass, integrated Intel HD graphics, 320GB or larger hard drive, integrated 3G WWAN, one USB 3.0 port, and a 4-cell battery. Total weight is 6.18 pounds. This dual-screen concept is very interesting, and if the software can keep up with the hardware, this concept may prove to be very attractive.
