I don't like the fact that it has two displays. It's unnecessary and makes it thicker and heavier.
How else would it recreate a book unless it had a folding display which would be even worse?
Books are made like this because it's impossible to make them any other way, but a digital device can have just one "page" since you read one page at time like Kindles and Kobos
The other option is a scroll. historicaly I'm told a book was always a scroll and the factor we now call a book was a codex. (I don't know how to verify this)
