So WM 6.5 will suppost capacitive?

This is what I am confused about, people have been saying that we will have to wait for WM7 to see a capacitive screen, but the HTC LEO specs (rumored I know) says it will be 6.5 with a capacitive touch screen. So what I am wondering is WM 6.5 will support resistive and capacitive? And how will that if if so? I am not making any claims that is why I am try to clear speculation.

I could be wrong, and if I am I'm sure it wont take long for someone to correct me lol, but I think even 6.1 could support a capacitive screen. The problem is that the current configuration of winmo requires some pretty precise screen selections and capacitive screens arent accurate enough. WM6.5 has a lot more space between selections, so it might be possible to use capacitive. Some programs like TCPMP and Total commander would still be a pain though since WM only changes the spacing in the OS (such as folder views) and not actually within the programs.
