V12 Design Dual-Touchscreen Notebook will make ebook readers drool


Those who love reading ebook wil definetely going to like this V12 Design newest product; the Dual-Touchscreen Notebook. Because it has the biggest and widest screen for reading ebooks, and the best of all is there'll be two of them instead of one. But don't get too excited yet, since we must wait till 2010 to see the real one came out. Here are the rest of the news, quoted from LaptopMag:

Valerio Cometti, the founder and managing director of the firm, came up with a dual LCD laptop called the Canova. The first-generation Canova had a dual-touchscreen form and Cometti told us, “it was developed for creative types, such as artists.” The first-generation model, of which we have a whole slew of images below, actually existed and was made of stainless steel and carbon fiber, but it didn’t run an operating system or software. It was envisioned to transform from a sketch pad, to a writing pad with an electronic pen, to a newspaper.
Cometti pitched the idea around to laptop manufacturers, who took interest. Which is where the Canova Generation 2 comes in. Cometti said that V12 Designs has been working on a second-gen version of the dual-screen laptop along with a U.S. manufacturer. He believes the laptop, if you can call it that, will be complete in as soon as 16 months and will come to the U.S. market. He could not reveal the name of the U.S.-based company with which V12 is co-developing and designing the system.
“We developed a brand-new style for the second generation. We did stretch the potential of the Canova noticeably, making it able to do things no notebook has been able to do so far,” Cometti told us over the phone. Unfortunately, he could not provide images of the new version.
