Neat! Would be very nice if you had to have two people looking at/working on the same thing. Also a much more elegant way to have 2 monitors; I hope they come in 19"+ soon.

Would it be cheaper to do this yourself? Like buy two monitors and the mounting hardware?

sure but no LCD arm i've seen, and trust me i've seen craploads werking for local govt entities, that come with the integrated ports and the such. also none that handle 2 monitors at once with the flexibility this one does...

It looks very nice, but and odd number would have been ideal.
My setup has a vertical 22" and a horizontal 22": One for videos and one for browsing.

The $650 is also probably just a suggested price. The actual retail price should be much closer to the cost of two 17" LCDs.

The arms may be nice, but the ports and webcam shouldn't impact the price too much.

 

[Gin Fushicho]

Sounds useful. Wish I had a use for it now.

 

[Honis]

I'd buy that base they have the monitors hooked too!

 

[Wayoffbase]

Some good sized, high quality panels could make me consider something like this next time I'm shopping for a new display.

 

[krazynutz]

17" LCD's? That's it? I'll be interested once they introduce 24". Cool concept though.

 

[krazynutz]

Or at least 20" - 22"

 

[kittle]

cool concept. I wish they had an adaptor of sorts.. then i could hook up my dual 19" screens.

I can't get over the massive gap between both screens. I would've hoped a dual panel display would have all but elminated that. The gap between my displays is maybe an inch but that looks like it's got to be at least 4" and a big gap really breaks the usefulness of dual screens imho. Surely they could have mounted the camera and mic at the top of the bezel rather than in the centre and close that gap.

 

[pocketdrummer]

that gap is quite large :-/

 

[doomtomb]

Two 17" monitors with unimpressive specs but a great rotational stand. Woulda been better with a little beefier 22" monitors but I guess this will do for business.

 

[thomaseron]

LCD stands for Liquid chrystal display right? So EVGA Liquid Chrystal Display display...? oh, it's because it's a dual-panel. Silly me.

 

[avatar_raq]

What a trick!! They stick two small cheap panels (with poor contrast ratio and response time) with a flexible arm and want to sell it for the price of three 22" panels!! I got my full-HD 21.5" 1000:1 5ms screen for $142!!!

 

[hillarymakesmecry]

Accountants would never buy this. It's not really superior to two identical $75 17" monitors but costs more. Accountants are all about cost controls. What a waste fo development dollars.

 

[sylvez]

this is just for the 'looking cool' factor.

usefulnesswise its as good as a macbook.

oh dear i didnt just go there did i

 

[etrnl_frost]

Before everyone starts talking about how small the screens are, keep in mind the application. This isn't for gaming - high res isn't necessary. This would fit very well in a one-one training application, or for companies standardizing on dual monitors for their employees. I think it's a fantastic idea - haven't read enough on the costs, etc, to see how that would figure.

For personal use? Admittedly, yes, at least 19" would be good.

 

[RazberyBandit]

Seems most of you are forgetting that in order for this to work properly, the monitors have to be able to "flip" the screen so that the person on the other side doesn't see a wall of upside-down crap. That's what increases the monitor cost - their auto-sensing technology. Standard monitors don't have it, but these do.

Grab all those 20-24" ones some of you were boasting about and flip 'em upside-down now. Are you having fun doing your work and/or playing your games now? Didn't think so...

This is a niche item, and I am certain there are people out there who desire such a product. Still, it's a bit too costly and the actual monitor size is too small.

 

[Fusion777]

windows has screen rotation capability built-in...

think I might prefer one 27" LCD for $400...

still, for the physical ability to swivel the 17" around it's unmatched

Looks like a peice of shit at a horrid resolution.
Would rather a widescreen for a single setup, but a 5/4 or a 4/3 for a duel set up (as I used to run...).
