Toshiba W100 looks like an iPad, when it is laid flat with the axis of rotation. You can lay Toshiba W100 in vertical or horizontal direction.

Like using ordinary laptops with physical keyboard, you can browse webpage in one screen, the other for a virtual keyboard. Although it is prone to occur the wrong tying by using virtual keyboard, because the virtual one can’t provide the same hand feel with physical keyboard, Toshiba W100 solves this problem by introducing the Senseg’s haptic feedback system. When you flick the virtual keyboard, the screen will shake weakly to ensure your typing. Of course, user can switch on or off this feedback function for their reference.

The second way is browsing one webpage across the both screens.

You can lie in bed and read this funny e-book.
