I am running windows7 on my laptop, and all is well, but I am jealous of the multitouch on macs. I don't really know how all of this "works", but i'm imagining that it couldn't be that hard to write a program to patch into windows that allows this. Currently, if I put two fingers on the pad and drag around, it sortv half-heartedly tries...

When I have my mouse plugged in, this feature is pain in the *ss, but when mouse isn't here, I really need it since my left mouse button on touchpad is broken. To make it quick: Q: How to set key sequence to toggle mouse left click by ta...
I have a ListActivity; and for each item in the ListView there is a checkbox. When you touch a list item, another Activity launches.
