Oh yeah, the coolest thing about this is that it can have two "modes": Vertical and Horizontal.

For Vertical, you can use it like a book, so that you can read on both sides, or use one side for taking notes.

For Horizontal, it's like a computer from the future, where the keyboard is not made of keys, but entirely out of a touchscreen. I can't quite figure out what else it can do though. I'm thinking maybe I can code some custom keyboards using AutoHotkey... or something for Ableton Live with MonoTouchLive.... (well, the computer is too slow for Ableton Live anyway.)

Switching between two modes is pain in the butt though. I wonder if there is a way to create a shortcut key to rotate two monitors at once. Ultramon maybe?

Anyway, more follow up soon. Thanks everyone for your interest.

Happy Halloween... I'm doing a haunted house!

I cannot believe that I let this slip under my radar! Totally epic project

Keep up the good work! Is the touchscreen multi-touch capable?
