Looks like the increasingly interesting (and huge!) ‘Kno’ tablet may hit classrooms by the Spring semester. It’s going to start shipping tomorrow (Tuesday).
At either $599 (1 14.1″ panel, like an iPad) or $899 (2 panels, like 2 iPads held together with tape), the Know is not exactly an iPad killer in terms of price.
It does however feature a stylus and operating system that lets students take notes on the fly in a much more elegant way than anything possible on the iPad.

About The Kno Tablet
The Kno is a multi-dimensional two-screen tablet that could lighten your bag — and change the face of textbooks.
According to Tablet PC Review, the Kno was designed specifically for students and may be able to do for them what the Kindle, Nook and iPad have not. It has been in development for a year.
Its student-geared features include a durable clamshell design, a “smooth and effortless” writing stylus that lets you highlight and annotate text and the ability to display a full textbook at once, eliminating the need for scrolling. There are plenty of other bells and whistles but ultimately we don’t see this taking the place of the popular iPad (which has been selling once every three seconds!). Weigh in by letting us know on Twitter by mentioning @edudemic. Thanks!
