It has its uses, the important thing is to design the interface of this
phone to be useable with thumbs. There's interface elements which are too
small at present. I also dislike the Start menu too (too much like Windows
Mobile).

Multitouch is fiddly on the move, you're reliant on being able to hold the
device and use two thumbs or hold in one hand then use two fingers of the
same hand.

Apple mainly use it for zooming photos. You can do similar with one
finger, hold your thumb down on the centre of the touch screen and slide
outwards to zoom in. Do the same but touch edge of screen and slide finger
to middle of screen to zoom out.

The above has the advantage of being possible one handed.
