According to the drawings of a patent revealed recently, Apple would create a cover for the iPhone that would make the tablet with a second touch screen, plus it would be flexible. It seems that this product is in general much improved performance of the apple tablet.
The new roof, which is quite similar to today's Smart Case, is the same size as the iPad.

This second display could have several functions, including being a control interface, a notification center, a space for drawing or just an additional area located more icons, not forgetting of course that could be used as a keyboard, like the Touch cover Cover that Microsoft plans to release its tablet Surface.
Will it become reality this design? Time will tell.
