We talked before about a rumored eBook Reader in Asus’ Eee-line of products. Now we’ve got an article from Mark Hachman at PCMag.com that starts to confirm the rumor, and adds an exciting new element to the story.
Hachman writes that The Times of London reported that this thing is going to have a hinged spine connecting two reading panels, at least one of which will be tricked out for color display. See the picture here.
Asus is also talking inexpensive and premium versions of the machine, so this is certainly going to get a lot of speculation going. (Will the dual screen be reserved for the premium, or will the economy version fly black and white only, we’ll see, yah?)
Coolest idea yet, read along: one of the screens might be able to serve as a virtual keyboard effectively turning your eBook Reader into a laptop. Too much! That’s the kind of thinking we need to get this eBook Revolution into high gear.
