This is really new issue.
I bought ModBook (Axiotron) that is actually MacBook, and I was advised that there is noi way that I can connect 2 additional LCD Screens to it, only one.
I am wonder how 2 additional LCD screens can be added to MacBook (directly or via Docking Station), possibly with additional hardware.
Please for some help.

I think the Macbook can only handle an additional monitor, not two so its not a ModBook issue, but a design issue in the MacBook

Could look into some 3rd party solutions like
Matrox DualHead2Go (not very sure if the MacBook is supported)
Matrox Graphics - Products
or the upcoming USB-based displays that let you power an LCD off USB.
How do you find the ModBook? What made you buy it? Graphic work? Probably not note-taking right?

Either the Matrox DualHead2Go (digital or analog), but you need to watch the supported resolutions there (they're kinda low for the MacBook), or Gefen USB to DVI.

Thanks Naphtali.
Your question is interesting, concerning future use. I actually have totally different idea about ModBook usage. I will not use it for graphic work or note taking-only.
As a Project Engineer (and future Peoject Manager) I will use it for site-work.
As exexex...-PC fan, I realized that there are some nice software I can use only on MAC. So, my decision was to-buy a MAC.
But that is additional weight in PI's bag, incompatible programs, etc, etc...And at once, 2 years ago, I saw XP on MAC.
That was an exceptional news for me - with only one thing on my mind - how to integrate all the best software I can have and use on -one laptop/tablet.
As a man on the frequent bussiness trips, and sometimes in environment that prevent time consuming: pull-out-put back - in the bag all accessories for laptop, I found that tablet is solution for me.
As Apple is not tablet producer(this is the first clone -made by Axiotron)
I decided to buy it and to test and use it as much as I can.
That means use of note-taking, dictating, and using Keynote, Page 2 and Excell for MAC (as a part of Office for MAC 2008), as well as File Maker (MAC), MindMansger (PC), Microsoft Project (PC), Primavera Suretrack (PC), FastTrack (MAC), etc, etc...
Let me say -small machine for great office job.
Normally, when I am home, why not to connect to 2 additional screens, use normal MAC keyboard and Mighty Mouse....
So, idea is to have all-in one for office use.....
With Bootcamp and Vista Ultimate it seems to be -easy.
Anyhow, I will be from time to time on forum, and inform you about how is going on.
At this time ModBook is only product balanced between high price, and abillities....that have noone product - for specific use.
Better (even more expensive solution) will be real tablet configuration with :twisting" screen, but unfortunatelly, that is not "MAC" available....
I can just try to convince yuo, as anyone else, but lot, a LOT of Project Engineers and Project Managers will pay a lot moremoney, just to have "all-in one" solution - in one tablet.
Thank you for your interest.
