ASUS debuts community developed dual-screen concept

Remember WePC, the development community from ASUS and Intel that asks normal people to design next-generation computers? Yeah, honestly, I forgot about it as well. ASUS hasn’t, however, and at CeBIT it unveiled a concept notebook that takes its design straight from the community at WePC. Unsurprising from ASUS and Intel, along with a community of apparently forward thinkers, the design looks like something that will be hard to pass up.

The design incorporates not one, but two multi-touch screens. There is no physical keyboard on the device, but it would have an on-screen keyboard on one screen should you want one, and possibly hand-writing recognition. ASUS gives the examples of using it as a multimedia hub, a standard notebook, or even an e-book reader. Since it has no keyboard, there’s nothing that would keep the device in any particular position, which would make reading PDFs or e-books that much easier.
