What would I like to see done with two screens? Ehmm...
In platformers or RPGs, combat could be deepened by showing a standard top-down or over-the-shoulder view on one screen, while the other would be first-person, allowing precise moves and judgment of distances. Imagine dueling the guy in front of you in F-P, while being aware of the two guys behind you and dodging/slashing accordingly. Legolas simulator, anyone?
Stealth game uses are obvious. Keep Snake in action while the bug/camera/remote does it's work. Or, picture an escape scene where you have to pelt it throught a series of corridors (screen 1) while working a keypad (screen 2) to stop the bomb, or something.
The crazy Myamoto game. Whenever it's faced with a radical new departure, Nintendo can be counted on to come up with at least one completely new, unheard-of idea. There's absolutely no point in trying to guess what it will be with DS. It'll just happen.
They're the simple, off-the-head ideas. It's virtually guaranteed that not every game will use the two screens for completely different functions; many will likely just take the opportunity to unclog some status bars from the main screen.
