MSI’s dual screen e-reader / netbook concept we saw at CES 2010 earlier this month may actually be arriving this year according to an interview with the top heads at MSI by LaptopMag.

The device aims to combine multiple functions in one, mainly ebook reading and netbook functionality by using one of the 10-inch screens as a keyboard (with haptic feedback).

While I think Windows 7 is the most likely candidate for this device, Google Chrome OS is a possibility, too. Despite two screens, battery life seems okay at around 4-5 hours. If all goes well we can expect to see this device around the 2nd half of this year. Pricing unknown currently.
