Now that^ is something that might be worth having multi-touch on a portable device and that is, if the tablet could also be used as a Bluetooth pointing device for a big screened desk or laptop.

Especially cool if one of the tablets drives was recognized and accessed by the other machine as portable storage...

The bottom part of the screen is almost completely covered with the hand/fingers. If you need visibility to the bottom part of the screen, then this method is not very useful.
Agreed... besides, I'd rather keep my middle finger free at all times... for social commentary.
