You've got a point about the keyboard, in my haste to rant I totally sidestepped that :) A piano keyboard would be pretty lame if it didn't support chords. That said, I was reacting to the idea that Multi-Pointer X was the way to handle the screen from a software standpoint. Instead, if the hardware supports multitouch, a custom API should be developed just for the keyboard based on instantaneous pressure. Multi-pointer would be overkill to a simple solution. -Wade
