The long-awaited iPad version of Final Cut Pro is here and, with it, a touch-friendly design and accessible pricing.

The $800 Monduo Pro Duo isn't the only dual portable external display accessory on the market, but of the major ones I've seen it comes the closest to approaching the high-end specs of…
