\"\"An Engadget reporter had opportunity at CES to talk with Andy Rubin of Google about the lack of Muli-Touch support on the Nexus One.\u00a0 You can read the full article here<\/a>, but here is the direct quote Engadget received:<\/p>\n

\n
“”You call this a superphone — 3.7-inch capacitive display, but no keyboard and no multitouch. Yet it has multitouch outside the US. Why not America?”<\/span><\/em><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Andy’s reply:<\/em><\/p>\n

\n
“It’s not an America versus outside America kind of thing. It’s a decision that is a result of the OEM model. I personally don’t like two-handed operations… there is no conspiracy.””<\/em><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
It is an interesting statement from Rubin, and we agree with Engadget’s assessment.\u00a0 We sure hope that Google did not let this guy make a solo decision about the fate of multi-touch on the Nexus One.\u00a0 It is also interesting since it is being reported that the European version of the Nexus One is shipping with some built in multitouch enabled.<\/div>\n
Either way, I for one LIKE multi-touch operations, in all areas of life.\u00a0 Others prefer double tap, and still more don’t care.\u00a0 Where are you?<\/div>\n
