Android G1 hardware DOES support multi-touch

without comments

There has been a lot of uneducated speculation about whether the Android G1 could support multi-touch.  I just came across this post by a smart guy who recompiled the synaptics touchscreen driver and got it to track two fingers. Bravo!

No stupid YouTube video like previous attempts at proving this, just some clean console output (trimmed):
