Back to the drawing board. This tablet is strictly for entertainment only. Writing an email would take forever, def would not want to read on it, not even really watch a movie. Sony is effin up these days.
being so different to the other devices makes it a worthy experiment.
dual screen shouldn't be a problem because just about all programs have some sort of widow split in them. imagine youtube with video above, comments below. or simply viewing 2 webpages side by side.
Really love the wasted huge black borders around two tiny screens. Somebody seriously needs to do an intervention at Sony. This is utterly ridiculous.
@steelblue1 - tablets need some border because your fingers might overlap the edge when holding it. (phones don't have the problem because the can be clasped in the palm of your hand)
The design is a fail. The marketing of it is a fail. The price is a fail. It serves really no purpose. Imagine typing on the on screen keyboard. Not worth it at all. Fuck you Sony. Bring back the PS2!
i've not seen a multitask demo, and even just seeing a dual-pane web-browser would make great sense of this concept.
i almost get the impression though that with phones/tablets, you're supposed to get multiple devices for multitasking. 1device=1'hardware window' :) they're all connected. so, no need for software window management. dual core or 2 single core +seperate screens..
if they could somehow make this thing cheap as hell... it would become the standard for tablets. Unfortunately sony wont do that so this one won't quite sell out.
I prefer the iPad 2 it plays Flash, i can contol my desktop at home, while being in different city's. I have Line2 on it $10 bucks a month so it's a phone as well. I can pick up a call on my iPad and be with friend, then transfer the call to any phone I desire and use the minutes.
If your love your mum post this to twenty people. A girl ignored this and her mum died 365 days later. I had to put this down because I love my mum.
I love the portability of this thing... if they had made the junction between the screens look seamless when open then they would have completely nailed it.
If there is one tiny pebble between the screens, ouch
