Could it be a phone, a netbook or even an ereader/tablet like the Microsoft Courier? The above patent has surfaced via HTC, showing both screens working as one, or split so one is a virtual keyboard, the other, the UI.
The half ereader/half netbook from enTourage eDGe was one of the best gadgets CES threw up in my opinion. While the sale date has been pushed back by a month to March, some more details have been drip-fed to us.
So many gadgets around, so little cash with which to buy them. That’s where convergence comes into play – and the enTourage eDGe dualbook is a great example. I’d get one myself, if only they weren’t so damn big.
The enTourage eDGe dualbook has been officially ushered in at CES, along with the news it’ll be on sale in February for $US490. It’s the world’s first dualbook, which translates as an ereader, tablet, notepad and PMP.
