Just another linux lover.
MPX already supported multiple input devices. Which blows pretty much all assumptions in user interfaces (input) out of the water. (with video)

Wire muncher!
wow.. i must say wow!! :)

one thing i'd like to quote:
Looking around on the web and in the research literature, I found that all the multitouch systems are a hack (I'm talking about software integration here, not the hardware!). Multi-touch support needs to be in the windowing system. Any client-side approach is wrong. (Feel free to disagree with me on that)
now i'm very eager to know more about it! it wud definitely make an interesting read!! :)

i cudn't get one thing... the display was projected from behind... then on what screen were they working on?
