It seems Toon Warz, another game using multitouch also has some issues on N1 and Droid. Can others confirm the problem with the code posted above? Did anyone arrive at a solution? This is a pretty bad situation for game developers as nothing freaks users more out than bad controls. I think the code above is even a demo code from the android framework so i find it kinda strange that the problem didn't pop up during their testing phase. I also couldn't find any information on the logcat output telling me about the drop of a bad pointer.
