Multitouch exists rights now (no new hardware needed) with video
Take a look: http://www.fuzemobility.com/multitou...e-or-software/
On a Windows device pressing two points leads to a key press of a point in between those points. That means for games you can create a virtual key in between the two points that is mapped as pressing both buttons. It works right now on your device. Just press down with a sharp object (like two styluses) on two points and the point in the middle will be 'pressed'. It's not very easy to do consistently but it does work. This means games can be created for multitouch as long as virtual keys are mapped for dual key presses. |

agreed it is not true multitouch but a game like guiatr hero can be made this way as long as the virtual key presses are in dead space.

If anyone wants to try out the Touch Pro Multi Touch capabilities with visual enhanced visual feedback, you need to check this out
http://freewareppc.com/games/pocketsand.shtml tap and hold one point on the upper right hand side and touch another point on the lower left side and a particle beam of sand/fire/water/acid etc etc shoots across the screen (acid shots are cool) multi touch has possibilities on this hardware yet |
