Now, if there is no way to emulate a general enough "true multi-touch" screen on a resistive screen, so that is not an option, isn't it?
What about having a "multi-touch playground", where the current ideas are tried in some kind of drawing board?
its been mentioned multiple times.
buried deep inside every mouse event is the multi touch code I built into original liqbase demo.
there is an additional set of coordinates additional to the normal mouse coordinates returned which indicates the position and validity of a second finger point

someone could have a dig around one one of the released apps to see if they could play.
its already been mentioned about liqflow, this is ideal since it uses the mouse event handler and you could do things with the second finger

I never meant this to be a stab at anyone. Sorry.
As for your points above, I agree with some, or rather you agreed with me. For example, holding a button and swiping is not multitouch per se. It could be used as such, which was my point. We could and should use gestures, button holding and whatnot instead of grabbing onto emulation and not letting go. I'm all for gestures.
N900 dead and Nokia no longer replaces them. Thanks for all the fish.
Keep the forums clean: use "Thanks" button instead of the thank you post.
