A few technical questions about this touchsmart tablet

Hi, hopefully I can get some HP engineers answer my questions.

1) Is this a real multi-touch screen? Not just a dual-touch screen that only allows stylus and one additonal finger touch "almost" at the same time, right? Is there any lag for the touching? How well the sense is?

2) Does the touch driver work with Windows 7? I found some online discussion online saying it doesn't or it works bad with Win7, but some other people say no problem. Really want to confirm it.

3) Is there a document of the touch driver API or something? I would like to program with the touch screen. As long as the dll expose something I need, I can take care of the rest. I know VS.NET 2010 provides some touchable controls, what extra things do I need to work with them?

Thanks a lot.

1:  Tx2z is a real multitouch.  However, vista does not seem to support or make any real use of multitouch at this time, windows 7 when it arrives will fully support and be much better with the multitouch and pen functions.

2:  I have seen reports of it working fine in windows 7, I have also seen people having issues with it.  I tried to try out Windows 7, however the download I got from MS was not a good copy and the DVD did not work, so I can not confirm yes or no.

3.  I am not sure on the APIs but I have seen mention of sdk and other such things, so I would imagine there would be some availible soon, or right after the release of Windows 7.
