Please don't brand me a traitor, but I'm going to be buy the HD2 next week. It may or may not become my main phone. I need to see how well the emulators work on it and it will force me to come up with a better touchscreen control scheme. BTW - I've already thought of an idea for a better touchscreen control scheme. I think the hardware buttons of the HD2/TP2 should be used for A/B/Start/Select, but I can place a movable (translucent) virtual d-pad on the display. In the settings dialog, I'll let you place it anywhere and set it up in different spots for each game system. Without true multitouch, even the HD2 won't be able to have a good on-screen control scheme. HTC exposed a kludgy way of doing 2-finger gestures on the HD2, but they don't give you access to the real touch data yet since it had to be shoehorned into WM6.5 and there's no existing API for multitouch. Anyone have a better idea for touchscreen controls?
