As soon as I saw the stupid little calender in the demo, it reminded me of the horrible UI Microsoft builds for small devices. I have a Windows Mobile smartphone, and just like this new tablet, it uses the same horrible UI. It's a nightmare without a stylus. What happened to you Microsoft; a few more years and then they will be #5 or so in the devices competition. I think it's going to pretty much useless and will be a big flop.
This is an exciting form-factor. Unlike other dual-screen devices, this is about the right size for a personal digital organizer. In office meetings, laptops are not acceptable at the table, but smartphones and normal paper pad and pen are. This device can be a non-distracting meeting tool for me to take notes, check email, and even record the meeting without being too obtrusive. As well as I can take those important files with me to the meeting. Though I like Windows 7, it is not the best OS for this device because of the power consumption and touch screen. Therefore, I recommend Android. Going to Android OS, you can use Tegra 20, eliminate the fan and probably reduce the thickness of the device. Other modifications I recommend are: 3G, back & menu buttons, stylus support, GPS, 5 megapixel camera w/LED flash on the back, analog thumb-directional cursor controller.

GScreen and Kohjinsha might want to contest that claim of being the "world's first" dual screen laptop. There are probably others too.
