Amazon Patents Dual Screen E-Book, Tablet Device

Amazon was recently awarded a patent for a tablet with a dual display - a color LCD in the front and an energy efficient E-ink display at the rear, reports Mashable .
The LCD display would be used to view dynamic content such as videos, and the more energy efficient and easy to the eye e-ink display, for reading electronic books.
According to the patent filing the device would automatically switch displays taking a cue from its front and rear-facing cameras, as also allow content to be moved from one display to the other.
When viewing static content on the LCD a user could conserve power by nudging the content to the e-ink display with a touch.
According to the Amazon filing, "An electronic device including two or more display elements can provide enhanced functionality with improved rates of power consumption. A user can cause information that does not change rapidly to be provided or moved to a relatively static display element, such as an electronic ink display, which enables that information to be displayed for a period of time with little additional power consumption."
