Gizmodo released details on a secret Microsoft project in the late prototype stages known as Courier. It can be though of two small tablets stitched together to make a dual screen tablet that folds together like a book with a leather cover.  The dual 7" screens are full multi-touch enabled with support for a stylus and touch gestures.  There is a single button between the two screens and status indicators around the frame of the screens with an camera on the back cover.
