A new word has just been created by enTourage eDGe to describe their e-reader, netbook, notepad, audio/video recorder and player: the dualbook.

Yes, this “do it all” device has a 9.7 inch screen on one side for the e-reader, and a 10.1 inch netbook screen on the other. It has a touchscreen display, WiFi, Android, six hours of battery life, and 3G of usable memory.

It should be available sometime in February 2010, but you can pre-order it now for $490, plus an extra $40 for colors of Ruby Red, Glacier White, and Ice Blue. Full specs after the jump.
