Ten-finger multitouch coming to mobiles

[ball4ever]

In case the two-finger multitouch seen on the new Macbook Pro and Fujitsu's upcoming notebook wasn't enough for you, French tech company Stantum recently showed off a ten-finger technology that it's calling “true multitouch.”On Stantum's 15.4-inch screen, you can use as many points as you want to control the screen. Judging by the smears in the picture, a lot of people found that appealing and took advantage of their chance to feel the new technology up.

Looks like Apple's iPhone ain't that hot any more if Stantum has their way, featuring ten-finger multitouch technology that allows you to use virtually all your digits simultaneously, opening up doors to virtually unlimited gestures and controls via the touch screen display

I just can't wait to see what are the more practical applications that can be worked out with multi-touch like this, but it will require a much steeper learning curve compared to the iPhone when it comes to mastering all the possible gestures.
