Jumbo Dual-Screen "Kno" Tablet Debuts At D8
itwbennett writes "The Microsoft Courier may be a dead project, but that doesn't mean you can't still have a dual-touchscreen e-reader. And a super-sized one at that, says blogger Peter Smith. The Kno, which debuted at All Things Digital's D8 conference yesterday has 'two 14.1-inch (1440 x 900) capacitive touch screens. Each screen has its own battery, giving the Kno 8-hours of battery life, but a hefty weight of 5.5 lbs. ... If Kno (the company) has its way, students will be carrying around a Kno (the device) rather than a stack of textbooks. That's the reason for the huge screens; most textbook pages can be shown 'full size' on a 14-inch screen.' Engadget, who got some hands-on time with the device, says 'the entire experience is essentially a WebKit instance.' Price is still up in the air but Ina Fried at CNET says the company is aiming for a price well under $1,000."
In a stunning turn of events, and uppiddy nigger actually did what he said he would.
Good job Jigaboo President Obama! Way to fix the economy!
anything more than $500 would just be pointless.
So, laptops that are powerful enough to run video editing or 3D raytracing software at decent speeds are pointless? Laptops that don't have shitty displays are pointless? Way to project your individual preferences onto an entire market.

I suppose the idea that there's no real premium attached to the iPad price is something you can't bear to entertain.
