A new dual screen notebook is set to be launched in Australia by Xmas. The device made by Alaskan Company gScreen will have two 15.4 inch LED backlight screens which have been described as ideal for gaming and professionals who want two screens.

The two screens slide away to the size of a single screen for easy transportation. Initially the product will only be sold on the Amazon web site with the Company confirming to SmartHouse that Australians will be able to buy the notebook from Q4 2009.
