That is exactly how the G1 and myTouch screen works -- when two fingers are
down, the size is essentially seeing them as a large touch area.

So please keep in mind: even the x and y location during multi-touch can be
somewhat inaccurate in some various ways, that depend on the exact screen
hardware.  The size and pressure are already not so accurate and vary in
their response with just one finger; for two or more fingers you will see
widely different behavior across different screens.

As I have said many times before: size and pressure are really not too
useful for driving the UI.  This goes even more so for multi-touch.  You
just need to accept that.

As I said, the framework has no finger limit.  I don't know what screen htc
uses on whatever devices the ship, so I can't answer this question.  Sorry.
