Linux may soon gain "multi-touch" support similar to that found in Apple's iPhone. The MPX (multi-pointer X) project is currently developing software aimed at enabling multiple cursors and input devices on standard OSes that use the X Window System, such as Linux and BSD.

We've been using locked down phones and been served proprietary content by single providers for quite a while now, but it looks like it took the iPhone buzz for enough people to start opposing this for it to become a seed of a movement, or at least an extension of existing movements into new areas (Free Software and Free Culture movements).

Judging from the news and rumors that circulate around the web, Google Phone might be a reality, and we already know how real Apple's iPhone is. I have no doubt that, just as Apple, Google can take the phone to new levels. In fact, I would say that Apple and Google may be among the most to blame for the trend that may replace those old keyboard phones with new multifunctional PDA-style touch screen phones.
