Multi-touching has already been incorporated in the Texas Hold-Em App...when its your turn...you can double tap your cards to check...I know this may be a lil trivial...but its a start i guess

how is double tapping "multi-touch"?

i dont see why google wud leave it out? its a hot feat theat was stupid if they cud have and didnt . hope there a gooooood reason .

I recommend you read other people's comments before posting to avoid sounding really dumb.

By the same token, I recommend to the editors of this site to do the same cause this has been discussed extensively well before the phone was even released.

My $0.02...

I'll be that they didn't implement because they couldn't get it ready in time... I'll bet it's just a matter of time till it's back in the saddle... Kinda like stereo bluetooth... it's there, it's just not implemented yet...

Hmmm, another useless article. Everyone knows that it is capable of multi-touch, most touchscreen devices are. The reason why it have it is because Apple has it copyrighted. Another tid bit of information that 99% of Android users already know.

Doubt you'll see a market app come out for this as it would infringe in the copyright.

I wouldn;t say that, look at HP touch PCs - Look at Microsoft surface computing - There is obviously a lot of room for movement around apple for "multi-touch" technology..

more touch interface all-around would be great

like swiping to scroll through photos etc, its such an intuitive motion that it feels like second nature (IMO)

Uhm, no. Most touchscreen devices are NOT capable of multitouch. Most touchscreen devices are resistive, meaning they use opposing gradients to come up with an X and Y resistance corresponding to location. Haven't you ever touched a screen in two places and seen the cursor go somewhere in between your fingers? (Yes, I know the G1 is capacitive and not resistive, but MOST touchscreens are resistive.)

Also, it's not a copyright problem. It's a patent problem.

Get your facts straight, then maybe you can make posts that contribute something.

Well I can think of two reason why Google would of left this out.....

1) The whole apple patent stuff, i mean the code was in there just commented out.... Come on now... Google was just waiting for someone to find it.

OR

2) Google developed everything for it so that way with the ideal in mind to be selling a new phone and on that phone they would say ewww look at this phone it has muti touch, why dont everyone come buy it... Not sure how much money they would make putting out the new handset but someone would be making money... Becuase every google fan boy would be out getting a new phoene... I know i would be
