S60 5th editition doesn’t have Multi-touch, you must wait untill Symbian^3

I fixed the touch keys on the recent AntSnes 0.71 release. I though that I could support multi-touch in my application. I mean that there’s nothing preventing it to happen :) It should just work.

Well, the thing is that there’s no multi-touch in S60 5.0! So there’s also no multi-touch on Samsung i8910. Therefore I’m not wondering anymore why Nokia uses only those crappy resistive displays.

According to Symbian roadmap the multi-touch is coming in Symbian^3. The Symbian^3 should come sometime at 2010. The chances of getting the multitouch to the AntSnes before that are close to 0.
