Windows 7 Multi-touch Features

"Last week, on a whirlwind tour of the Microsoft campus, I had a chance to sit down with the team responsible for implementing the multi-touch feature set in Windows 7 and to see a previously unannounced product called the Microsoft Touch Pack for Windows 7, which will be available with Windows 7 on new touch-compatible PCs. The Touch Pack consists of three multi-player games. Rebound, shown below, works like the old air hockey games where I wasted many hours of my college years."

Cute, but gimmicky features. I'm still not sold on full sized touch screen displays being useful for daily activities. I would like to see multi-touch features added for mice. Basically I'd like to be able to hook up two mice and use two independent pointers with multi-touch like features.


Featured Product

The Canon PowerShot S100 - The incredibly fun and small camera that offers you 12.1 megapixels with a bright f/2.0 lens and full 1080p video recording . MORE INFO
