There’s currently no shortage of touch-friendly hardware, so seing yet another gadget with touch screens shouldn’t be a surprise, but this one is a bit different. For starters it has two screens, no keyboard and is a more or less full-fledged computer.

Toshiba has made a splash with a pocket-friendly concept laptop called the Libretto W100, which has two 7-inch touch screens that can be used in tandem. Of course, since it has no keyboard, the second display can also be used for writing or drawing.

As for the details, we are told that it weighs around 800 grams, and each display has a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels. The processor is an Intel Pentium U5400 running at 1.2 GHz. There’s 2 GB of RAM, a 64GB SSD, webcam, Bluetooth, 802.11n wireless network and it runs Windows Home Premium 7. Toshiba says the battery life is about 5 hours.

Libretto W100 is really more a concept than a model ready for mass production, but in conjunction with Toshiba’s 25th anniversary, a small number will be sold on the consumer market – probably sometime in August. The pricing will allegedly be about $ 1,100.
