Would be great to see a new video with the config_filterTouchEvents enabled on the N1. Anyone?

Who cares, it's a 800x480 AMOLED screen covered in Gorilla glass. Does the iPhone have that?
Hum, so how come you can find a multi-touch keyboard in the market ?

And, not that I don't believe you, but do you have any real proof of what you are saying ?
Where did you read it is Gorilla Glass?
AFAIK the claim was that it is NOT Gorilla Glass.
There has never been a single official statement ever from either Google or HTC that the Nexus One has or does not have Gorilla Glass.
your logic has a fallacy. by your chain of reasoning the nexus one also needs a shower everyday.
jokes apart, if it had gorilla glass they would have probably mentioned it ahead of talking about the teflon coating.
I just wanted to point out that when the axes cross you lose any prior correlation data, but you can still use the pressures to potentially tell them apart as you say. So, you only lose half of the "extra info" (albeit probably the more reliable "half").There are a few methods to try and tell them apart. One would be to correlate touch "pressure". The other would be to correlate movement of peaks in X and Y axis... But when axes cross you loose all that extra info... which leads to "sticking" phenomena.
so ok you win Iphone I can cure your mothers ACNE or play a fake guitar to impress the girl who told me she will only allow me in her pants if I have a fake digital guitar. YOU WIN! I LOSE!
Filtering can only do so much. Unless the hardware is able to properly detect both x and y position of a touch at the same time there will always be some cases of incorrect touch positions.Interestingly, there is a hack in the framework (which is enabled on the Droid, but not on the N1) that can be enabled by setting config_filterTouchEvents. With it disabled (the default), I get the axis-flipping problem. Enabling it fixes this, but there are still issues with the points "sticking" when they cross.
I prefer a stylus over my finger. Styli don't leave fingerprints, and they are more precise. I have a X51v that works very nicely with a resistive screen. If I have a stylus, I don't need to worry that I've been eating, or touching snow, or have wet fingers, et cetera.

You said "AFAIK the claim was that it is NOT Gorilla Glass."
So where is this supposed "claim" coming from? Can you provide a link? Didn't think so.
Also, absence of proof is NOT proof of absence.
