Asus Taichi already offers screen on both sides of the lid, which offers tablet to the user when the lid is closed and when it is open it is a regular laptop with the user facing the primary screen and secondary screen rests at the back.
The groundbreaking laptop design is fitted with and extra e-ink black and white display, which will run even if the power has juiced out.
