Also, on every laptop-like device I've used, there are four things that ever break (well not counting cosmetic damage and five if you count hard drives; I've been lucky with memory). Two of these are display hinges and the display cable. Three integrated displays sounds like asking for trouble. Seperate displays like you suggest might at least make it easier to replace the parts that break. Also you could then use them on a different laptop more easily too. (The other two things that break for me are the power connection inside the laptop and the power cord where it bends just outside the laptop. I don't think I'm that rough on them...)
