Photos: Hands-on the Samsung Dual Display 2263DX
Tags: samsung, inch, cable, arm
Crave knows two screens are better than one. Many of us use twin 19-inch displays, while the real high rollers rock twin 30-inch Dell 3007WFPs. We don't need to -- but that's just how we roll. So you can imagine just how intrigued we were when Samsung showed us its Dual Display 2263DX -- a 22-inch monitor with a second 7-inch monitor poking out of the top.
It may look odd, but Samsung says it lets users have their favourite applications running uninterrupted in a totally separate, always-visible desktop space. It's right, too: we can definitely see ourselves running common apps such as Outlook, or a media player on the 7-inch display, while the main 22-incher gets on with the serious stuff. Like Facebook.
The Dual Display 2263DX will be available to buy from your local Currys.Digital later this month for £280. We'll have a full review as soon as we can, but in the meantime don't forget to click through for more pictures of the system in action. -Rory Reid

It could be useful. But I agree it would have been even better if it was a touch screen. I could see myself use if as a messenger window wile watching full screen videos.
