Multitouch Track Pad

unklerosco · 2008-01-10 20:28:11

http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/10/video-demoing-the-multitouch-trackpad/ Well its actually called "multifingers smart pad" I'd have thought apple would have tried to release this before anyone else... Although I doubt the multifingers smart pad will detract from a multitouch pad on a macbook

ah but we've had gesture scrolling for a good while now - crude multitouch, but multitouch nonetheless

The 'multi-touch' on the MacBook pads is quite nice, stuff like 'tap with two fingers for a right-click' and 'press with one finger and another to drag down a page like a scroll-wheel' is handy.

Wouldn't mind seeing that zoom with two fingers thing though.
