not the display but the surface under the display of HTC Touch Diamond, HTC Touch Pro and other compatible phones from HTC - is actually a capacitive touch-area with multi-touch...

While I am not a fan of iPhone for several reasons, the touch interface is the best implementation yet of touchscreen navigation, and multi-touch is indeed a logical development. It's a shame that it took Apple, a relative outsider to introduce this technololgy. Microsoft as always continues to display a complete lack of innovation.

Hopefully now that HTC are also pushing multi-touch, it will become more common. This will hopefully help to kickstart MS into a native multi-touch feature in WM.
