I've just tried it out with the magic mouse. Cool! Works like a charm. I've got it tracking up to 5 fingers (3 reliably, 4 unreliably, 5 on rare occasions.. it seems once it's finally detected an extra finger it'll track it ok, it just struggles to detect them as you add more than 3).
It's also tracking touch size (w/h so you get a rough shape) and angle. With all that, you can pretty much build an on-screen image of the touches, showing where your hand is pretty well. I briefly tried it on a macbook pro too, but it locked as soon as I tried 2 fingers or more (as in the composition froze, no hang/crash, and it continued as normal as soon as I went back to 1 finger). This was running in quicktime, as I can't install the sdk on that machine as it's not mine :( I suspect it's a combination of the multitouch OSX prefs and quicktime. Composition attached.
