The second tablet is the dual-screen S2 clamshell with its pair of 5.5-inch 1,024 x 480 pixel displays, Tegra 2 SoC, and cameras. While it sounds bulky, Kunimasa Suzuki just pulled the hinged tablet from his jacket pocket on stage. Sony takes advantage of the two screens with a custom book-style UI layout for its e-reader app, email (keyboard on one display with email on the other), and others. Both the S1 and S2 are PlayStation Certified and are WiFi and 3G/4G "compatible" according to Sony. Expect to see them ship globally in the fall. See the S1 and S2 in action after the break.
