gScreen Spacebook- 24-inches from a 13.3

Yes, 24-inches of screen from a 13.3-inch laptop. The gScreen Spacebook 13.3-inch will not be released until after the 15.4-inch is released.

Yes, we are still behind schedule...

Again, this is a test model and not a production unit.

Yes, we are behind schedule...

The gScreen Spacebook 13.3-inch, is a test unit, not a production model. Next week will have the gScreen Spacebook 005, which is a 15.4-inch dual screen (test unit). We will not release specs, as those will change as we go into production.

Free Software on a Free Flash Drive...

One of the new programs we are considering offering to our customers is a Free 4-Gig Flash drive loaded with Free Software and 30-day Software Trials (with purchase of a laptop). Several software programs we would like to offer that are free already are programs such as AVG Anti-virus, Comodo-Firewall, Open Office, LimeWire, Ad-Aware, Quick Time Player.

We would also offer preloaded browsers such as Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox onto the flash drive that you can try at your leisure or delete. None of these programs will be installed onto the system before shipping, giving you the option to install it or delete it completely.

There are many companies that offer free 30-day trials of their programs such as ADOBE and Microsoft. We will continue to reasearch this program offering and gladly except feedback or suggestions of software programs to offer on our flash drive.

What program would you like to see offered?

Here is ADOBE CS4 Download page:

If you don't know already, Adobe rocks! (well, that's my opinion)

3- Dual screens in 2-weeks

Looks like 3 new "dual-screen laptops" have been announced within about a 2-week period as of recent, including our own dual screen laptop, the G400. In late December Lenovo released a few details of their new "dual-screen" or what I would call a "screen and a third", that they showcased at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. The ThinkPad W700ds has a main 17-inch LCD screen, along with a 10.6-inch screen that slides out to the right from behind. The second screen can be angled in by about 30 degrees. This laptop weights in at a little over 11 pounds and is priced around $3600. I visited Lenovo website a few days ago and looks like they are not shipping product for "at least 4-weeks" they are stating that their product is the first "dual screen laptop", I suppose we need a new definition of "dual-screen laptop".

The other "dual screen laptop" is being offered is the HP branded Voodoo Firefly prototype, dubbed the “HP Firefly with Voodoo DNA,” a laptop that features a uniquely positioned multi-touch touchpad, dual displays. Just below the large 17.1-inch 1920 x 1200 display is a second 4.3-inch LCD with 800 x 480 resolution, similar to the Fujitsu N7010’s which is found above the keyboard. The secondary screen looks about the size of a business card.

This is just the beginning, the beginning of what you ask? That is a good question.
