Comment Feed for Channel 9 - Where the Multitouch Devices Are pt. 2 http://ecn.channel9.msdn.com/o9/previewImages/100/527986_100x75.jpg Channel 9 - Where the Multitouch Devices Are pt. 2 In October I put together a list of all the available multitouch hardware that I could find. Here is an updated list of multitouch hardware. The number of touch points on each differs, and because that number is tied to the driver and can change, I haven't included that information. A good rule of thumb is that optical and resistive often have 2 touch points while capacitive often have 4 or more. Thanks to Shane Abreu for helping compile the list.

I think that MS should back us consumers and force these companies to include information about how many touch points the devices have on the packaging and or technical documentation.  As it stands you have no clue until you actually fire up your laptop or PC how many fingers it will work with.  Help me out.

Nice to see multitouch spreading rapidly.

Which is what i currently own here in Southeast Asia - the 1820PTZ.

You can usually find out by looking around. One problem though is the number of touchpoints can change depending on various factors. My TX2 has had a low of 2 and a high of much more than 2 depending on drivers.

 

Keep watching 9, I may be able to help with this.
