Apple Asked Google to Not Use Multi-Touch. Google Said Okay

When the Andriod G1 came out many were dissapointed from the lack of multi-touch support. The iPhone remains the multi-touch king so to speak in the mobile phone business. Many have speculated over the reasoning behind Andriod's lack of multi-touch support while others have added it in themselves later. Finally a Venturebeat source on Google's Andriod team has come clean.

Google has not included multi-touch support in their Andriod platform because Apple asked them not to.

Apple and Google have a good relationship together. Apple has google as the default search engine in the iPhone...
