Straddling the line between a laptop and a convertible table, the dual-screen Acer Iconia looks to follow in the footsteps of the similar Toshiba Libretto.
The Iconia is a 14-inch laptop with an additional 14-inch screen where a keyboard would normally be, making the device, in effect, a large-scale version of the Toshiba Libretto we reviewed a few months ago.

The Iconia is, at its heart, a Core i5 laptop with familiar specs: up to 4GB of DDR3 RAM, integrated Intel graphics, a hard drive up to 750GB, and Windows 7 Home Premium. Ports are also typical for a high-end laptop: two USB 2.0, one USB 3.0, HDMI, and VGA.
