Toshiba recently unveiled the limited edition – Libretto W100, a dual-screen hybrid PC. Resembling a Nintendo DS, the Libretto W100 encompasses the “ultra-mobile concept PC” and could be a promising alternative to smart phones for the mobile workforce.  Unlike the iPad and Android devices, the Libretto comes standard with an Intel Pentium U5400 processor and has 2GB of DDR3 RAM. Perhaps even a larger perk is its ability to keep a charge for four to five hours.

Measuring 4.84 inches by 7.98 inches and weighting only 1.8 pounds the gadget is among the smallest in its category. But don’t be fooled, the dual touch screen resolution is amazing at 1024×600. The dual-screens have the ability to work independently – multi-tasking users can shop online while checking work email –  or the screens can work together showing a web page across both screens. Like a smartphone, the Libretto W100automatically changes between portrait and landscape mode when rotated and comes equipped with a USB port. Unlike the iPad, the Libretto offers a Web cam and is compatible with Flash Media Player..

As an added feature Toshiba is promising to develop e-reader software that will allow the Libretto to take the place of your Kindle. Making the most of it’s dual screen interface, the Libretto will be capable of showing two-page spreads much a paperback book.

While the Libretto W100 is priced a little higher than the iPad, the Libretto W100 has a number of attractive features that may make it a great mobility solution for your business.
