i don't think we can expect any standardized mass-produced multitouch hardware to become available at a reasonable price to a significantly large number of people in the near future.

I've always wondered what it would be like to play a game with two mouses... er, mice. Seems you could have some pretty neat control schemes that way.
Completely off-topic, sorry.

Just sayin'
it's gonna be a standard Win7 API
