The hardware supports a limited multitouch sort of by chance. It
loses track of fingers too close to the vertical or horizontal so if
you want to pinch or spread for zoom, you have to do it at an angle.
Rotation doesn't work thru a vertical or horizontal, altho a clever
program could make a guess.

Yes, I think $5. I had tried the builtin virtual keyboard and found
it barely better than nothing, but nowhere near as good as the physical
keyboard. I was reluctant to try Better Keyboard but it turned out so
good that I wondered if Google would incorporate many of its features
into some later version of Android, maybe even buy rights to it if not
just plain copy.
