Abstract
Methods of displaying information on an electronic device have a first touchscreen display and a second touchscreen display are disclosed. As the user enters inputs on the first touchscreen display, the second touchscreen displays the results of the user's inputs on the first touchscreen display. Either touchscreen can be used as an input device. Display information generated by an application can be the same on both displays. Alternatively, the first and second displays comprise a single, larger screen. An single application can address the displays as distinct devices. A touchscreen display can be dedicated to a single application, or a single instance of an application such that the two displays can run different applications, or different instances of the same application. In conjunction with a wireless communications module, the electronic device can be used as a portable teleconferencing device.
