Acer has recently launched a dual screen laptop Acer ICONIA 6120 that costs $1,200. When you open the laptop you will find no keyboard, but two 14 inch, touch sensitive screen facing each other, closed it looked like regular laptop.
You can’t use a laptop that have no touch pad and keyboard, so Acer Iconia have a virtual keyboard and a touch pad that appears on the lower screen. If the lower screen keep showing the keyboard and the touchpad then what is good for the lower screen. So it’s not like we’ve gained any screen space. Only by making the keyboard disappear you can use the screen to display content, that is it displays relevant controls and changes according to your needs.
Acer says the Iconia is “ideal for anyone who prefers the familiar computing environment of Microsoft’s operating system.” They recommends it for business use.
As it costs only $400 extra then a convenient laptop, so it shows Acer’s real guts in putting this one into mass production, as most models that are as strange as the Iconia, at most get to grace a display case at a trade show.
The company also revealed about its new Clear.fi media sharing system. As per news it is a cloud-based system that is designed to play multi-format content over multi-platform devices, enabling any number of gadgets to talk to one another in order to make content shareable and visible with any other device.So long as there’s a router and a WiFi connection nearby, any Clear.fi-enabled device should be able to share, search and consume.
