The word "capacitative" was mentioned a few times at the summit in Harmattan context, but this development may mean that Harmattan will be able to run on Fremantle devices after all.

Perhaps related to liqbase's fake multi touch support(certainly enough for scale and rotate)?

But not resistive like you maybe are thinking at the moment...

Engadget article doesn't say anything about resistive screen. Lets see what the linked patent application says.
The sensor surface is a capacitive sensor surface arranged to produce the location indicator as a response to a situation in which a distance between the sensor surface and the external object is less than a pre-determined limit value.
I bolded the part that makes thread title somewhat silly.

The patent talks about both, and combinations thereof (search for "touch sensitive").

Combination resistive and capacitive sounds very interesting.

The title doesn't want correct itself. :|

I hope nokia stays with resistitive technology. It’s much more accurate and it’s very important for the Asian markets that you can handwrite.

Sorry folks, it turned out that is was capacitive touchscreen instead of resistive one
