The Dell Inspiron Duo has recently been previewed by Dell to some media sites such as Engadget and there is now a page up on Dell.com with information about this very interesting netbook device. But don’t be fooled, it’s not just your average netbook, it also converts into a touchscreen tablet pc device using a unique screen flip method.

Many students are interested in Tablet devices for the ability to take notes and use the device like an iPad or eBook Reader to read online content or eBooks. However, at the end of the day a student still needs a laptop to be able to quickly type and navigate the web, so you end up having to purchase two different devices. The Dell Inspiron Duo offers a two-in-one laptop and Tablet experience by allowing the screen to flip, so you can use it like a laptop or hold it like a tablet and use your finger for input.
