Multi touch is supported at the framework level. It just need support in the app.

Quote from Android website:
“MotionEvent can now report simultaneous-touch information for devices that support it. Up to three pointers can be tracked simultaneously”
That should mean it is capable of adding multi-touch to it

Obviously less important than all the new feutures but what is the multimedia support in Android2. So what video and audio codecs are supported out of the box and what is th eplayback like.

A-greed. I do love multi-touching on my friends iphone, but it isn’t a necessary add on like a physical keyboard is!

Those two things and web browsing are the only things you really need it for, but I just think it’s a cool feature. But it is simply icing on the cake, so to speak. I’m pretty much sold on the droid.

What do you need multi touch for aside from pinching and zooming in Google Maps or with pictures?

If it only didnt have a stupid slide out keyboard. It looks horrible when the keyboard is extended.

The SDK announcement has a Program Highlights page in it that has Exchange Support mentioned… so….. I believe so?

This is the first real walk through of the droid working… and boy is it fricking fast. Still looks a bit drap with a gray wallpaper but quick like lightning.

Does anyone know if this will finally fix the issues with non-Gmail or exchange emails? Simply put, will 2.0 allow full use of Yahoo mail? I like the myTouch but it’s kind of silly that a phone dictates what email I should use. I’m not asking for full push support, but at least allow native folder and read/delete sync.

Thanks for the insight!

Does anyone know if this update is going to be for all Android phones? I remember reading that the ROM of the G1 was going to be too small for the update to 2.0 Thanks!
