Researchers at the University of Maryland at College Park and the University of California at Berkeley have recently unveiled a prototype of a dual-display e-book reader. The reader features two detachable screens that can be viewed side by side like an open book, or with one screen folded behind the other like a paperback. The screens can also be flipped to simulate turning the pages of a book.
The big question, of course, is whether readers will prefer this device to the Kindle. —Andrea L. Foster
