Two heads are better than one

Two 15.4" screens, portable and at the ready to be deployed pretty much anywhere you can take a laptop? Absolutely brilliant... It's almost a wonder how up to this point no one's taken a crack at what seems to be the next logical evolutionary step in portable notebooks for media professionals.

Technically Lenovo holds the distinction of being the first manufacturer to attempt a dual-screen laptop. Their efforts resulted in an extra 10-inch screen that hangs out (oddly) to the side. Fortunately, this time around Alaska's Gscreen Spacebook is looking to push the entire concept further... with an actual 15.4" matching screen set... designed of course primarily for photographers, video editors, graphics designers (and other self-identified tech nutcases mrgreen)...
Nonetheless, the system looks awesome. There aren't a lot of details out yet, seeing as marketing hasn't officially started on this product. But the release projection places it as coming out prior to Christmas 2009... (so we'll be hearing all about this one come fall). You can read up more on GScreen's (unique) Spacebook over at Gizmodo.
