The interface supports the use of 10 fingers, and he talks about the
"bandwidth" of using 10 fingers as better than using a single mouse
pointer.
But then he goes on to only use anything more than 2 fingers to define
different modes of interacting with the window manager(I can do the
same thing using a mouse and the alt key), he only uses the two
fingers for the classic multitouch use case, resizing images(are they
useful for anything else?) and the only really useful thing he does is
when he is using 1 finger to draw in the drawing program where a mouse
would be more accurate.

it's surprising with all the hype that no-one actually has a demo of
anyone doing any actual work with a multitouch device.
