The DoubleSight DS1700 Gives Your PC Double Vision

Ergonomics

One issue is that the stand does not work when you have only one monitor on it; you need the second one to balance the weight and make it stable. The stand itself is adjustable in height, and you can adjust the angle between the two panels with a reasonable amount of headroom. On the embedded software side, the on-screen display (OSD) is well-made, clear and feature-filled. The buttons on the front of the device make the OSD easy to navigate.

Overall, I was pleased with the usability of the DS1700.

Features

I have one small nit to pick here. There is a dual VGA/DVI input on both panels, with each basically treated as a separate device. We would have preferred an integrated power unit. The DS1700 still uses external transformers, although I do not see any reason for that. There are no speakers or USB connectors, either.
