Here’s a feature you’ll start to see on portable PCs around the end of next year. The auxiliary display is a tiny LCD-style screen (plus navigation buttons) embedded into the outside of a notebook or other portable computer. The idea is simple: You can check an appointment, look up a phone number, pull up a music playlist, or do some other light task without having to open the PC and wait for it to wake up. Great idea!
