Two-Weapon fighting, TWF, Dual-wielding, ect. involves using seperate attacks for each hand and does involve penalties. Now it may be possible to take the TWF penalties down to 0/0 with ALL the feats available but it is a long road to get ALL the feats. That assumes there is a (probably epic) feat someplace that mimics the Tempest's (CAdv) ambidexterity class feature; not that this feature is unrealated to the 3.0 Ambidexterity feat. Generally the two-weapon fighting feat and using a light weapon in the off-hand will give all your attacks a -2 penalty and it is very difficult to shake it off.
