What is a multi-touch keyboard?

[Azeez]

How does it differ from the stock keyboard shipped with other Droid phones? How exactly is it MT? Please explain

means you can press two keys at once and both will register as input...the stock droid if you press two keys at once only one will register.

It's a marketing scheme, don't stress it. All it means is that it can deal with two inputs at once (which all properly coded capacitive screens can).

and yeah its a marketing scheme...who really tries to press two keys simultaneously?

What? It's not a marketing scheme.. not by a long shot.

You can type faster on multi touch keyboards because your 2nd finger doesn't have to wait for the 1st finger to fully release a key press for its touch to register.

i've tried both and really never noticed a difference in speed...but i guess for some people it works
